Package org.apache.flex.compiler.mxml Description

This package contains classes and interfaces that provide a syntactic representation of MXML as tags and attributes, without any semantic understanding of what those tags and attributes mean in MXML.

The main class is MXMLData, which represents an entire MXML file. The content of the file is represented as a list of MXMLUnitData objects representing MXML units, but there are APIs which allows the linear list of units to be accessed as a hierarchy of tags that contain other tags.

There are three types of MXML units:

• An MXMLInstructionData unit represents a processing instruction such as <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>.
• An MXMLTagData unit represents an open tag like <Button>, a close tag like </Button>, or an empty tag like <Button/>. The attributes of an open tag or an empty tag are represented by MXMLTagAttributeData objects.
• An MXMLTextData unit represents character data such as regular text, whitespace, a CDATA block, or a comment.
