public abstract class Hashtree2Node {
Convert a Hashtable into a Node tree.

The hash may have either Hashtables as values (in which case we recurse) or other values, in which case we print them as <item> elements, with a 'key' attribute with the value of the key, and the element contents as the value.

If args are null we simply return without doing anything. If we encounter an error, we will attempt to add an 'ERROR' Element with exception info; if that doesn't work we simply return without doing anything else byt printStackTrace().

Params:
  • hash – to get info from (may have sub-hashtables)
  • name – to use as parent element for appended node futurework could have namespace and prefix as well
  • container – Node to append our report to
  • factory – Document providing createElement, etc. services
