## Detailed Description

provides information about an element within a hierarchy.

The local name and the full hierarchical name can be retrieved. Attributes detailing the role of the element can be queried. The state of the element (regarding defaults) can be accessed.

Implementations of this service usually also implement service HierarchyAccess, which concerns the complementary role of providing access to subelements of the hierarchy.

## Exported Interfaces

## ◆ com::sun::star::beans::XProperty

interface com::sun::star::beans::XProperty
| optional

provides a property descriptor for this element.

[optional]

This interface may be missing, if the hierarchy supports no traits that are described by com::sun::star::beans::PropertyAttribute values.

If the parent of this object implements com::sun::star::beans::XPropertySetInfo, then this returns the same com::sun::star::beans::Property as the com::sun::star::beans::XPropertySetInfo of the parent.

## ◆ com::sun::star::beans::XPropertyWithState

interface com::sun::star::beans::XPropertyWithState
| optional

provides access to the default state of this element.

[optional]

This interface may be missing, if the hierarchy supports access to a default state and values only for simple values or not at all.

If the parent of this object implements com::sun::star::beans::XPropertyState, then members of this interface have the same effect as corresponding members of the parent.

If an implementation is part of a read-only view of the hierarchy, attempts to change property states will fail.

## ◆ com::sun::star::container::XChild

interface com::sun::star::container::XChild
| optional

provides access to the parent of this element [optional].

This interface may be missing if this object is not obtained as a child or descendant of another tree node, for example, directly from a factory or provider.

com::sun::star::container::XChild::getParent() returns NULL, if this object is currently not contained in another node.

Setting a different parent is, generally, not supported.

## ◆ com::sun::star::container::XHierarchicalName

interface com::sun::star::container::XHierarchicalName

provides the complete hierarchical name of this element within the hierarchy tree.

## ◆ com::sun::star::container::XNamed

interface com::sun::star::container::XNamed

provides the local name of this element within its parent.

Renaming an element is generally not supported.
