ElementBuilderImpl (GWT Javadoc)

java.lang.Object
- com.google.gwt.dom.builder.shared.ElementBuilderImpl

Direct Known Subclasses:

DomBuilderImpl, HtmlBuilderImpl
```
public abstract class ElementBuilderImpl
extends java.lang.Object
```
Base implementation of ElementBuilderBase that handles state, but nothing else.
DO NOT USE THIS CLASS. This class is an implementation class and may change in the future.
This class is used to ensure that the HTML and DOM implementations throw the same exceptions, even if something is valid in one and not the other. For example, the DOM implementation supports changing an attribute after setting inner HTML, but the HTML version does not, so they should both throw an error. Otherwise, they would not be swappable.

  - finish
```
public Element finish()
```
    Return the built DOM as an Element.
    
    Returns:
    the Element that was built
  - getDepth
```
public int getDepth()
```
  - html
```
public void html(SafeHtml html)
```
  - onStart
```
public void onStart(java.lang.String tagName,
           ElementBuilderBase<?> builder)
```
  - style
```
public abstract StylesBuilder style()
```
    Get the StylesBuilder used to add style properties to the current element.
    
    Returns:
    a StylesBuilder
  - text
```
public void text(java.lang.String text)
```
  - assertCanAddAttributeImpl
```
protected void assertCanAddAttributeImpl()
```
    Assert that the builder is in a state where an attribute can be added.
  - assertCanAddStylePropertyImpl
```
protected void assertCanAddStylePropertyImpl()
```
    Assert that a style property can be added, and setup the state as if one is about to be added.
  - assertValidTagName
```
protected void assertValidTagName(java.lang.String tagName)
```
    Assert that the specified tag name is valid.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if not valid
  - doCloseStartTagImpl
```
protected abstract void doCloseStartTagImpl()
```
    Close the start tag.
  - doCloseStyleAttributeImpl
```
protected abstract void doCloseStyleAttributeImpl()
```
    Close the style attribute.
  - doEndStartTagImpl
```
protected abstract void doEndStartTagImpl()
```
    Self-close the start tag. This method is called for elements that forbid the end tag.
  - doEndTagImpl
```
protected abstract void doEndTagImpl(java.lang.String tagName)
```
    End the specified tag.
    
    Parameters:
    tagName - the name of the tag to end
  - doFinishImpl
```
protected abstract Element doFinishImpl()
```
    Return the build element.
    
    Returns:
    the element
  - doHtmlImpl
```
protected abstract void doHtmlImpl(SafeHtml html)
```
    Set the specified html as the inner HTML of the current element.
    
    Parameters:
    html - the HTML to set
  - doOpenStyleImpl
```
protected abstract void doOpenStyleImpl()
```
    Open the style attribute.
  - doTextImpl
```
protected abstract void doTextImpl(java.lang.String text)
```
    Set the specified text as the inner text of the current element.
    
    Parameters:
    text - the text to set
  - endAllTags
```
protected void endAllTags()
```
    End all open tags, including the root element.
    Doing so also ensures that all builder methods will throw an exception because the stack is empty, and a new element cannot be started.
  - lockCurrentElement
```
protected void lockCurrentElement()
```
    Lock the current element, preventing any additional changes to it. The only valid option is to call end().
