Element (JAXB XJC 4.0.4 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.sun.tools.xjc.reader.gbind.Expression
- - com.sun.tools.xjc.reader.gbind.Element

All Implemented Interfaces:

ElementSet, Iterable<Element>

Direct Known Subclasses:

SinkNode, SourceNode
```
public abstract class Element
extends Expression
implements ElementSet
```
Expression that represents an alphabet of a regular language.
Since this package is about a regular expression over element declarations, this represents an XML element declaration (hence the name.) Element needs to be interned, meaning one Element per one tag name.
Implements ElementSet to represent a self.

All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods Deprecated Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`void`	`addNext(Element element)`	For each element in this set, adds an edge to the given element.
`void`	`buildStronglyConnectedComponents(List<ConnectedComponent> ccs)`	Builds a set of strongly connected components and puts them all into the given set.
`boolean`	`contains(ElementSet rhs)`	Doesn't have to be strict (it's OK for this method to return false when it's actually true) since this is used just for optimization.
`boolean`	`hasSelfLoop()`
`Iterator<Element>`	`iterator()`	Deprecated. if you statically call this method, there's something wrong.
