Aspose::Words::Document::Accept method

Document::Accept method

Accepts a visitor.

bool Aspose::Words::Document::Accept(System::SharedPtr<Aspose::Words::DocumentVisitor> visitor) override
ParameterTypeDescription
visitorSystem::SharedPtr<Aspose::Words::DocumentVisitor>The visitor that will visit the nodes.

ReturnValue

True if all nodes were visited; false if DocumentVisitor stopped the operation before visiting all nodes.

Remarks

Enumerates over this node and all of its children. Each node calls a corresponding method on DocumentVisitor.

For more info see the Visitor design pattern.

Examples

Shows how to use a document visitor to print a document’s node structure.

void DocStructureToText()
{
    auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(MyDir + u"DocumentVisitor-compatible features.docx");
    auto visitor = MakeObject<ExDocumentVisitor::DocStructurePrinter>();

    // When we get a composite node to accept a document visitor, the visitor visits the accepting node,
    // and then traverses all the node's children in a depth-first manner.
    // The visitor can read and modify each visited node.
    doc->Accept(visitor);

    std::cout << visitor->GetText() << std::endl;
}
