context Property

  • Article

Gets the node (subtree) that is applied to the selection.

var objXMLDOMNode = objXMLDOMSelection.context;
objXMLDOMSelection.context = objXMLDOMNode;

HRESULT get_context(
  IXMLDOMNode** ppNode
);
HRESULT putref_context(
  IXMLDOMNode* pNode
);

General Remarks

Because the selectNodes method can be called on any node type, context can also be assigned any node type. A node from a different document from the one that originally created IXMLDOMSelection can also be specified as long as it has the same threading model. Calling context also resets the state of the node list so that nextNode starts over.

This property applies to the following interface:

IXMLDOMSelection.
