public class IlvXMLSettings
extends IlvSettings

Defines settings associated with XML streams.
The IlvXMLSettings class provides several methods for initializing XML settings from XML streams:

readSettings(String) to read the settings from an XML file.
readSettings(Reader) to read the settings from an XML stream.
readSettings(java.net.URL) to read the settings from a file URL.
setDocument(Document) to associate XML settings with a specified DOM document.

XML streams that are XML settings for the Java Application Framework application must have the following form:

 <?xml version="1.0" ?>
 <appframe>
    <settings>
        ...
        < Root settings elements >
        ...
    </settings>
 </appframe>

Root settings elements can be settings elements that initialize either Java Application Framework components or user components. For example, the "options.xml" file below initializes both an IlvToolBar and some user application options:

 <?xml version="1.0" ?>
 <appframe>
    <settings>
        <toolbar name="default">
            <button actionCommand="OpenDocument">
            <button actionCommand="SaveDocument">
        </toolbar>

        <options
            textEditor="c:\temp\textEditor.exe">
            <save>
              autoRecover="20"
              createBackupCopies="true"
            </save>
        </options>
    </settings>
 </appframe>

User application options can be retrieved as shown below:

 IlvApplication application = new IlvApplication();
 ...
 application.addXMLSettings("options.xml";
 application.initialize();
 ...
 IlvSettingsElement optionsElmt = application.selectElement("options");
 String editor = optionsElmt.getString("textEditor", null);
 IlvSettingsElement saveOptionsElmt = options.getFirstChild("save");
 int autoRecover = saveOptionsElmt.getInt("autoRecover", 10);
 boolean createBackup = saveOptionsElmt.getBoolean("createBackupCopies", true);

You can find task-oriented documentation and examples of using XML settings in the Rogue Wave JViews Application Framework User's Manual, in the section on Settings.

    Specified by:
    
    getImplementation in interface Document
    
    Overrides:
    
    getImplementation in class IlvSettings

  - createElement
```
public Element createElement(String tagName)
                      throws DOMException
```
    Creates an element of the type specified. Note that the instance returned implements the Element interface, so attributes can be specified directly on the returned object.
    In addition, if there are known attributes with default values, Attr nodes representing them are automatically created and attached to the element.
    To create an element with a qualified name and namespace URI, use the createElementNS(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) method.
    The implementation of this method delegates the creation of the element to the Document associated with these settings. This document is accessible with the method getDocument().
    
    Specified by:
    
    createElement in interface Document
    
    Overrides:
    
    createElement in class IlvSettings
    
    Parameters:
    
    tagName - The name of the element type to instantiate. For XML, this is case-sensitive. For HTML, the tagName parameter may be provided in any case, but it must be mapped to the canonical uppercase form by the DOM implementation.
    
    Returns:
    
    A new Element object with the nodeName attribute set to tagName, and localName, prefix, and namespaceURI set to null.
    
    Throws:
    
    DOMException - INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: Raised if the specified name contains an illegal character.

In addition, if the referenced entity is known, the child list of the EntityReference node is made the same as that of the corresponding Entity node.If any descendant of the Entity node has an unbound namespace prefix, the corresponding descendant of the created EntityReference node is also unbound; (its namespaceURI is null). The DOM Level 2 does not support any mechanism to resolve namespace prefixes.
    The implementation of this method delegates the creation of the EntityReference to the Document associated with these settings. This document is accessible with the method getDocument().

    Parameters:
    
    name - The name of the entity to reference.
    
    Returns:
    
    The new EntityReference object.
    
    Throws:
