Aspose::Words::Paragraph::Accept method

Paragraph::Accept method

Accepts a visitor.

bool Aspose::Words::Paragraph::Accept(System::SharedPtr<Aspose::Words::DocumentVisitor> visitor) override

Parameter	Type	Description
visitor	System::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 DocumentVisitor implementation to remove all hidden content from a document.

void RemoveHiddenContentFromDocument()
{
    auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(MyDir + u"Hidden content.docx");

    auto hiddenContentRemover = MakeObject<ExFont::RemoveHiddenContentVisitor>();

    // Below are three types of fields which can accept a document visitor,
    // which will allow it to visit the accepting node, and then traverse its child nodes in a depth-first manner.
    // 1 -  Paragraph node:
    auto para = System::ExplicitCast<Paragraph>(doc->GetChild(NodeType::Paragraph, 4, true));
    para->Accept(hiddenContentRemover);

    // 2 -  Table node:
    SharedPtr<Table> table = doc->get_FirstSection()->get_Body()->get_Tables()->idx_get(0);
    table->Accept(hiddenContentRemover);

    // 3 -  Document node:
    doc->Accept(hiddenContentRemover);

    doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"Font.RemoveHiddenContentFromDocument.docx");
}
