Subject: [dom4j-user] detach returning
Node
The detach method return type is void. This
means that when ever I want to add one document's element to a second document
I got to write code like this
Document doc1 = getDocument1();
Document doc2 = getDocument2();
Element ele =
doc1.getRootElement().element("Node1");
ele.detach();
doc2.getRootElement().add(ele);
If detach returns 'this' then code will be very
inline
doc2.getRootElement().add(doc1.getRootElement.element("Node1").detach());
Any reason why detach method doesn't return Node
type?
