Class XMLLocationInformation

java.lang.Object

com.dd.plist.LocationInformation

com.dd.plist.XMLLocationInformation

public class XMLLocationInformation
extends LocationInformation

Information about the location of an NSObject within an XML property list file.

Line and column number are only available if the withLineInformation parameter in the call to one of the XMLPropertyListParser's parse methods was set to true. The line information is taken from the Locator class and thus is only an approximation of the actual location that can only be used for diagnostic purposes.
