TElXMLDOMNode.CloneNode method

TElXMLDOMNode.CloneNode

Creates a copy of the current node.

Declaration

[C#]
TElXMLDOMNode CloneNode(bool Deep);
TElXMLDOMNode CloneNode(bool Deep, TElXMLDOMDocument aCloneOwner);

[VB.NET]
Function CloneNode(ByVal Deep As Boolean) As TElXMLDOMNode
Function CloneNode(ByVal Deep As Boolean, ByVal aCloneOwner As TElXMLDOMDocument) As TElXMLDOMNode

[Pascal]
function CloneNode(Deep : boolean) : TElXMLDOMNode;
function CloneNode(Deep : boolean; aCloneOwner : TElXMLDOMDocument) : TElXMLDOMNode;

[C++]
    TElXMLDOMNodeHandle CloneNode(bool Deep);
    TElXMLDOMNodeHandle CloneNode(bool Deep, TElXMLDOMDocument &aCloneOwner);
    TElXMLDOMNodeHandle CloneNode(bool Deep, TElXMLDOMDocument *aCloneOwner);

[PHP]
TElXMLDOMNode CloneNode(bool $Deep)
TElXMLDOMNode CloneNode(bool $Deep, TElXMLDOMDocument $aCloneOwner)

[Java]
TElXMLDOMNode cloneNode(boolean Deep, TElXMLDOMDocument aCloneOwner);
TElXMLDOMNode cloneNode(boolean Deep);

Parameters

Deep - Specifies where "deep" copy should be made.
aCloneOwner - The owner for the newly created node.

Description

Use this method to create a copy of the node. Deep parameter specifies whether shallow or deep copy should be made. Shallow copy only copies node properties, while deep copy copies node properties and clones all child nodes.

aCloneOwner parameter specifies the owner document for the new node. If this parameter is not passed (i.e. the method with one parameter is called), the owner of the node, which is being copied, is used.
