Some types of XML nodes have no children nodes, but are leaf nodes and
simply contain text. Examples are XMLTextMode
, XMLProcessingInstruction
.
This function provides access to their raw contents.
This has been extended to operate recursivel on arbitrary XML nodes
that contain a single text node.
xmlValue(x, ignoreComments = FALSE, recursive = TRUE,
encoding = getEncoding(x), trim = FALSE)
The object stored in the
value
slot of the XMLNode
object.
This is typically a string.
the XMLNode
object whose
contents are to be returned.
a logical value which, if TRUE
does not include the text in XML comment nodes.
If this is FALSE
, the text in the comments is part
of the return value.
a logical value indicating whether to process all
sub-nodes (TRUE
) or only the text nodes within the node x
.
experimental functionality and parameter related to encoding.
a logical value controlling whether we remove leading or trailing white space when returning the string value
