All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class UnchangedElementHasChildrenException
extends DeltaXMLProcessingException

In a changes-only delta, an unchanged element should not have any child attributes or elements. This is the core difference between a full-context delta and a changes-only one, for a combine a changes-only delta is used to apply the changes to one input XML document to re-create the second input XML document. A combine with a full-context delta doesn't make sense as it is possible to extract both input XML documents without combining (there are XSLT filters to achieve this included in the release).

A method is supplied to get the xpath of the unchanged element that incorrectly contains child attributes and elements.

Note: the getErrorCode() method is provided for compatibility with earlier XML Compare releases; when called with this exception the result will be: 53
