Title: detach returning Node

I've made this change, committed it into CVS and its now available in the daily build.   Thanks again Kesav. James ----- Original Message ----- From: Kesav Kumar To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Saturday, September 15, 2001 1:38 AM 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?
