Method Detail

• substitute

  public Attributes substitute(Attributes attributes)

  Substitutes the attributes (before they are passed to the Rule implementations's).

  Digester will only call this method a second time once the original Attributes instance can be safely reused. The implementation is therefore free to reuse the same Attributes instance for all calls.

  Specified by:

  substitute in class Substitutor

  Parameters:

  attributes - the Attributes passed into Digester by the SAX parser, not null (but may be empty)

  Returns:

  Attributes to be passed to the Rule implementations. This method may pass back the Attributes passed in. Not null but possibly empty.

• substitute

  public String substitute(String bodyText)

  Substitutes for the body text. This method may substitute values into the body text of the elements that Digester parses.

  Specified by:

  substitute in class Substitutor

  Parameters:

  bodyText - the body text (as passed to Digester)

  Returns:

  the body text to be passed to the Rule implementations
