Class ElementContent

Create a wrapper associating a value with its element declaration.

Normally the element declaration is determined by consulting the content model when creating a binding instance. When manipulating the preferred content list, this may be inconvenient to obtain; in that case provide the instance in which the content appears immediately, along with the tag that is used for the Python attribute that holds the element.

Parameters:

• value - the value of the element. Should be an instance of _TypeBinding_mixin, but for simple types might be a Python native type.
• element_declaration - The pyxb.binding.content.ElementDeclaration associated with the element value. Should be None if the element matches wildcard content.
• instance - Alternative path to providing element_declaration
• tag - Alternative path to providing element_declaration

Overrides: object.__init__

elementDeclaration

The pyxb.binding.content.ElementDeclaration associated with the element content. This may be None if the value is a wildcard.

Get Method:

__getElementDeclaration(self) - The pyxb.binding.content.ElementDeclaration associated with the element content.
