Class Pxp_document.attribute_impl

class [< clone : 'a; node : 'a node;

Note that attribute nodes do intentionally not have extensions.

Attribute nodes are created on demand by the first invocation of attributes_as_nodes of the element node. Attribute nodes are created directly and not by copying exemplar nodes, so you never need to create them yourself.

Attribute nodes have the following properties:

• The node type is T_attribute name.
• The parent node is the element node.
• The method "attributes" returns name, value , i.e. such nodes have a single attribute "name". To get the value, call n # attribute name.
• The method "data" returns the string representation of the attribute value.
• Attribute nodes are leaves of the tree.
