• get

  public HeaderFooter get(int index)
  

  Retrieves a HeaderFooter at the given index.

  The index is zero-based.

  Negative indexes are allowed and indicate access from the back of the collection. For example -1 means the last item, -2 means the second before last and so on.

  If index is greater than or equal to the number of items in the list, this returns a null reference.

  If index is negative and its absolute value is greater than the number of items in the list, this returns a null reference.

  Parameters:

  index - An index into the collection.

  Example:

  Shows how to link header/footers between sections.

  // The second section will display the header/footers of the first
  doc.getSections().get(1).getHeadersFooters().linkToPrevious(true);
  
  // However, the underlying headers/footers in the respective header/footer collections of the sections still remain different
  // Linking just overrides the existing headers/footers from the latter section

  Assert.assertNotEquals(doc.getSections().get(0).getHeadersFooters().get(0).getText(), doc.getSections().get(1).getHeadersFooters().get(0).getText());
  
  // Likewise, unlinking headers/footers makes them not appear
  doc.getSections().get(2).getHeadersFooters().linkToPrevious(false);
  
  // We can also choose only certain header/footer types to get linked, like the footer in this case
  // The 3rd section now won't have the same header but will have the same footer as the 2nd and 1st sections
  doc.getSections().get(2).getHeadersFooters().linkToPrevious(HeaderFooterType.FOOTER_PRIMARY, true);
  
  // The first section's header/footers can't link themselves to anything because there is no previous section

• getByHeaderFooterType

  public HeaderFooter getByHeaderFooterType(int headerFooterType)
  

  Retrieves a HeaderFooter of the specified type.

  Returns null if the header/footer of the specified type is not found.

  Parameters:

  headerFooterType - A HeaderFooterType value. A HeaderFooterType value that specifies the type of the header/footer to retrieve.

  Example:

  Deletes all footers from all sections, but leaves headers intact.

Method Detail

• add

  public void add(Node node)

  Adds a node to the end of the collection.

  The node is inserted as a child into the node object from which the collection was created.

  If the newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed.

  If the node being inserted was created from another document, you should use DocumentBase.importNode(com.aspose.words.Node,boolean,int) to import the node to the current document. The imported node can then be inserted into the current document.

  Parameters:

  node - The node to be added to the end of the collection.

  Example:

  Shows how to prepare a new section node for editing.

  Document doc = new Document();
  
  // A blank document comes with a section, which has a body, which in turn has a paragraph,
  // so we can edit the document by adding children to the paragraph like shapes or runs of text
  Assert.assertEquals(2, doc.getSections().get(0).getChildNodes(NodeType.ANY, true).getCount());
  
  // If we add a new section like this, it will not have a body or a paragraph that we can edit
  doc.getSections().add(new Section(doc));
  
  Assert.assertEquals(0, doc.getSections().get(1).getChildNodes(NodeType.ANY, true).getCount());
  
  // Makes sure that the section contains a body with at least one paragraph
  doc.getLastSection().ensureMinimum();
  
  // Now we can add content to this section
  Assert.assertEquals(2, doc.getSections().get(1).getChildNodes(NodeType.ANY, true).getCount());

• clear

  public void clear()

  Removes all nodes from this collection and from the document.

  Example:

  Shows how to remove all sections from a document.

  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Document.docx");
  
  // All of the document's content is stored in the child nodes of sections like this one
  Assert.assertEquals("Hello World!", doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getText().trim());
  Assert.assertEquals(19, doc.getSections().get(0).getChildNodes(NodeType.ANY, true).getCount());
  
  doc.getSections().clear();
  
  // Clearing the section collection effectively empties the document
  Assert.assertEquals("", doc.getText());
  Assert.assertEquals(0, doc.getSections().getCount());

• contains

  public boolean contains(Node node)

  Determines whether a node is in the collection.

  This method performs a linear search; therefore, the average execution time is proportional to Count.

  Parameters:

  node - The node to locate.

  Returns:

  True if item is found in the collection; otherwise, false.

  Example:

  Shows how to work with a NodeCollection.

  Document doc = new Document();
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
  
  // The normal way to insert Runs into a document is to add text using a DocumentBuilder
  builder.write("Run 1. ");
  builder.write("Run 2. ");
  
  // Every .Write() invocation creates a new Run, which is added to the parent Paragraph's RunCollection
  RunCollection runs = doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().getRuns();
  Assert.assertEquals(runs.getCount(), 2);
  
  // We can insert a node into the RunCollection manually to achieve the same effect
  Run newRun = new Run(doc, "Run 3. ");
  runs.insert(3, newRun);
  
  Assert.assertTrue(runs.contains(newRun));
  Assert.assertEquals("Run 1. Run 2. Run 3.", doc.getText().trim());
  
  // Text can also be deleted from the document by accessing individual Runs via the RunCollection and editing or removing them
  Run run = runs.get(1);
  runs.remove(run);
  Assert.assertEquals("Run 1. Run 3.", doc.getText().trim());
  
  Assert.assertNotNull(run);
  Assert.assertFalse(runs.contains(run));

• indexOf

  public int indexOf(Node node)

  Returns the zero-based index of the specified node.

  This method performs a linear search; therefore, the average execution time is proportional to Count.

  Parameters:

  node - The node to locate.

  Returns:

  The zero-based index of the node within the collection, if found; otherwise, -1.

  Example:

  Shows how to get the indexes of nodes in the collections that contain them.

  Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Tables.docx");
  
  Table table = (Table) doc.getChild(NodeType.TABLE, 0, true);
  NodeCollection allTables = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.TABLE, true);
  
  Assert.assertEquals(0, allTables.indexOf(table));
  
  Row row = table.getRows().get(2);
  
  Assert.assertEquals(2, table.indexOf(row));
  
  Cell cell = row.getLastCell();
  
  Assert.assertEquals(4, row.indexOf(cell));

• insert

  public void insert(int index, Node node)

  Inserts a node into the collection at the specified index.

  The node is inserted as a child into the node object from which the collection was created.

  If the index is equal to or greater than Count, the node is added at the end of the collection.

  If the index is negative and its absolute value is greater than Count, the node is added at the end of the collection.

  If the newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed.

  If the node being inserted was created from another document, you should use DocumentBase.importNode(com.aspose.words.Node,boolean,int) to import the node to the current document. The imported node can then be inserted into the current document.

  Parameters:

  index - The zero-based index of the node. Negative indexes are allowed and indicate access from the back of the list. For example -1 means the last node, -2 means the second before last and so on.

  node - The node to insert.

  Example:

  Shows how to work with a NodeCollection.

  Document doc = new Document();
  DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
  
  // The normal way to insert Runs into a document is to add text using a DocumentBuilder
  builder.write("Run 1. ");
  builder.write("Run 2. ");
  
  // Every .Write() invocation creates a new Run, which is added to the parent Paragraph's RunCollection
  RunCollection runs = doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().getRuns();
  Assert.assertEquals(runs.getCount(), 2);
  
  // We can insert a node into the RunCollection manually to achieve the same effect
  Run newRun = new Run(doc, "Run 3. ");
  runs.insert(3, newRun);
  
  Assert.assertTrue(runs.contains(newRun));
  Assert.assertEquals("Run 1. Run 2. Run 3.", doc.getText().trim());
  
  // Text can also be deleted from the document by accessing individual Runs via the RunCollection and editing or removing them
  Run run = runs.get(1);
  runs.remove(run);
  Assert.assertEquals("Run 1. Run 3.", doc.getText().trim());
  
  Assert.assertNotNull(run);
  Assert.assertFalse(runs.contains(run));
