public class ReplaceAttributeAction
extends PendingUpdateAction

A pending update action representing a replace node expression applied to an attribute. Note that the replacement attribute may be absent; this is not quite the same as a delete operation, because the consistency rules on the pending update list are different.

Get the target node of the update action

Specified by:
getTargetNode in class PendingUpdateAction
Returns:
the target node, the node to which this update action applies. Returns null in the case of a delete action, which affects multiple nodes.

getOldAttribute

getNewAttributes

public AttributeCollection getNewAttributes()
Get the attribute collection containing the new (replacement) attributes

Returns:
the new attributes to be added in place of the old attribute
