public class DomComment

extends DomCharacterData

implements Comment

"Comment" implementation. Comments hold data intended for direct consumption by people; programs should only use ProcessingInstruction nodes. Note that since SAX makes comment reporting optional, XML systems that rely on comments (such as by using this class) will often lose those comments at some point in the processing pipeline.
