CustomXmlPart

Inheritance: java.lang.Object

All Implemented Interfaces: java.lang.Cloneable

public class CustomXmlPart implements Cloneable

Represents a Custom XML Data Storage Part (custom XML data within a package).

To learn more, visit the Structured Document Tags or Content Control documentation article.

Remarks:

A DOCX or DOC document can contain one or more Custom XML Data Storage parts. Aspose.Words preserves and allows to create and extract Custom XML Data via the Document.getCustomXmlParts() / Document.setCustomXmlParts(com.aspose.words.CustomXmlPartCollection) collection.

Examples:

 Document doc = new Document();

 // If we enable the "Developer" tab in Microsoft Word,
 // we can find elements from this collection in the "XML Mapping Pane", along with a few default elements.
 String xmlPartId = UUID.randomUUID().toString();
 String xmlPartContent = "Hello, World!";
 CustomXmlPart xmlPart = doc.getCustomXmlParts().add(xmlPartId, xmlPartContent);

 // 2 -  By GUID:
 Assert.assertEquals(xmlPart, doc.getCustomXmlParts().getById(xmlPartId));

 // Add an XML schema association.

 // Clone a part, and then insert it into the collection.

Returns: byte[] - The XML content of this Custom XML Data Storage Part.

getDataChecksum()

public long getDataChecksum()

Specifies a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) checksum of the getData() / setData(byte[]) content.

Examples:

Shows how the checksum is calculated in a runtime.

 Document doc = new Document();

 StructuredDocumentTag richText = new StructuredDocumentTag(doc, SdtType.RICH_TEXT, MarkupLevel.BLOCK);
 doc.getFirstSection().getBody().appendChild(richText);

 // The checksum is read-only and computed using the data of the corresponding custom XML data part.
 richText.getXmlMapping().setMapping(doc.getCustomXmlParts().add(UUID.randomUUID().toString(),
         "ContentControl"), "/root/text", "");

 long checksum = richText.getXmlMapping().getCustomXmlPart().getDataChecksum();
 System.out.println(checksum);

 richText.getXmlMapping().setMapping(doc.getCustomXmlParts().add(UUID.randomUUID().toString(),
         "Updated ContentControl"), "/root/text", "");

 long updatedChecksum = richText.getXmlMapping().getCustomXmlPart().getDataChecksum();
 System.out.println(updatedChecksum);

 // We changed the XmlPart of the tag, and the checksum was updated at runtime.
 Assert.assertNotEquals(checksum, updatedChecksum);
 

Returns: long - The corresponding long value.

getId()

public String getId()

Gets the string that identifies this custom XML part within an OOXML document.

Remarks:

ISO/IEC 29500 specifies that this value is a GUID, but old versions of Microsoft Word allowed any string here. Aspose.Words does the same for ECMA-376 format. But note, that Microsoft Word Online fails to open a document created with a non-GUID value. So, a GUID is preferred value for this property.

A valid value must be an identifier that is unique among all custom XML data parts in this document.

The default value is an empty string. The value cannot be null .

Examples:
