isText in interface EventNode

Overrides:

isText in class EventToken

Returns:

this returns true as this event represents text

getValue

public String getValue()

This returns the value of the event. This will return the text value contained within the node. If there is no text within the node this should return an empty string.

Specified by:

getValue in interface EventNode

Overrides:

getValue in class EventToken
