    import com.sleepycat.dbxml.*;

    public void * getDOM(bool withAnnotationAttributes)
        throws XmlException;

# Description

The XmlDocument.getDOM method returns the document as a W3C Level 3 Document Object Model (DOM).

The flags value must be set to 0 or the following value:

Db.DB_WITHATTRIBUTES
  The document annotation attributes are added as attributes of the document's root element.

The XmlDocument.getDOM method throws an exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on failure.

# Errors

The XmlDocument.getDOM method may fail and throw an exception encapsulating a non-zero error for the following conditions:

EINVAL
  An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.

  The document has no content stored in it.

The XmlDocument.getDOM method may fail and throw an exception for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system methods. If a catastrophic error has occurred, the XmlDocument.getDOM method may fail and throw a DbRunRecoveryException, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls will fail in the same way.
