QDomProcessingInstruction¶
Detailed Description¶
The QDomProcessingInstruction class represents an XML processing instruction.
Processing instructions are used in XML to keep processor-specific information in the text of the document.
The XML declaration that appears at the top of an XML document, typically <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> , is treated by QDom as a processing instruction. This is unfortunate, since the XML declaration is not a processing instruction; among other differences, it cannot be inserted into a document anywhere but on the first line.
Do not use this function to create an xml declaration, since although it has the same syntax as a processing instruction, it isn’t, and might not be treated by QDom as such.
The content of the processing instruction is retrieved with QDomProcessingInstruction.data() and set with QDomProcessingInstruction.setData() . The processing instruction’s target is retrieved with QDomProcessingInstruction.target() .
For further information about the Document Object Model see Level 1 and Level 2 Core. For a more general introduction of the DOM implementation see the QDomDocument documentation.
- class PySide.QtXml.QDomProcessingInstruction¶
- class PySide.QtXml.QDomProcessingInstruction(x)
Parameter: x – QDomProcessingInstruction Constructs an empty processing instruction. Use QDomDocument.createProcessingInstruction() to create a processing instruction with content.
Constructs a copy of x .
The data of the copy is shared (shallow copy): modifying one node will also change the other. If you want to make a deep copy, use QDomNode.cloneNode() .
- QDomProcessingInstruction.data()¶
Return type: QString Returns the content of this processing instruction.
- QDomProcessingInstruction.operator=(arg__1)
Parameter: arg__1 – QDomProcessingInstruction Return type: QDomProcessingInstruction Assigns x to this processing instruction.
The data of the copy is shared (shallow copy): modifying one node will also change the other. If you want to make a deep copy, use QDomNode.cloneNode() .
- QDomProcessingInstruction.setData(d)¶
Parameter: d – QString Sets the data contained in the processing instruction to d .

- QDomProcessingInstruction.target()¶
