The <code><aclass="el"href="classxercesc_1_1DOMImplementation.html">DOMImplementation</a></code> interface provides a number of methods for performing operations that are independent of any particular instance of the document object model.

<hr><h2>Constructor & Destructor Documentation</h2>
<tr><tdvalign="top"></td><tdvalign="top"><em>feature</em> </td><td>The name of the feature to test (case-insensitive). The values used by DOM features are defined throughout the DOM Level 2 specifications and listed in the section. The name must be an XML name. To avoid possible conflicts, as a convention, names referring to features defined outside the DOM specification should be made unique. </td></tr>
<tr><tdvalign="top"></td><tdvalign="top"><em>version</em> </td><td>This is the version number of the feature to test. In Level 2, the string can be either "2.0" or "1.0". If the version is not specified, supporting any version of the feature causes the method to return <code>true</code>. </td></tr>
<dlclass="return"compact><dt><b>Returns:</b></dt><dd><code>true</code> if the feature is implemented in the specified version, <code>false</code> otherwise. </dd></dl>
Creates an empty <code><aclass="el"href="classxercesc_1_1DOMDocumentType.html">DOMDocumentType</a></code> node.
<p>
Entity declarations and notations are not made available. Entity reference expansions and default attribute additions do not occur. It is expected that a future version of the DOM will provide a way for populating a <code><aclass="el"href="classxercesc_1_1DOMDocumentType.html">DOMDocumentType</a></code>. <dlcompact><dt><b>Parameters:</b></dt><dd>
<tableborder="0"cellspacing="2"cellpadding="0">

NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: May be raised by DOM implementations which do not support the <code>"XML"</code> feature, if they choose not to support this method. Other features introduced in the future, by the DOM WG or in extensions defined by other groups, may also demand support for this method; please consult the definition of the feature to see if it requires this method. </td></tr>
