-/**
- * This interface represents an entity, either parsed or unparsed, in an XML
- * document. Note that this models the entity itself not the entity
- * declaration. <code>Entity</code> declaration modeling has been left for a
- * later Level of the DOM specification.
- * <p>The <code>nodeName</code> attribute that is inherited from
- * <code>Node</code> contains the name of the entity.
- * <p>An XML processor may choose to completely expand entities before the
- * structure model is passed to the DOM; in this case there will be no
- * <code>EntityReference</code> nodes in the document tree.
- * <p>XML does not mandate that a non-validating XML processor read and
- * process entity declarations made in the external subset or declared in
- * external parameter entities. This means that parsed entities declared in
- * the external subset need not be expanded by some classes of applications,
- * and that the replacement value of the entity may not be available. When
- * the replacement value is available, the corresponding <code>Entity</code>
- * node's child list represents the structure of that replacement text.
- * Otherwise, the child list is empty.
- * <p>The DOM Level 2 does not support editing <code>Entity</code> nodes; if a
- * user wants to make changes to the contents of an <code>Entity</code>,
- * every related <code>EntityReference</code> node has to be replaced in the
- * structure model by a clone of the <code>Entity</code>'s contents, and
- * then the desired changes must be made to each of those clones instead.
- * <code>Entity</code> nodes and all their descendants are readonly.
- * <p>An <code>Entity</code> node does not have any parent.If the entity
- * contains an unbound namespace prefix, the <code>namespaceURI</code> of
- * the corresponding node in the <code>Entity</code> node subtree is
- * <code>null</code>. The same is true for <code>EntityReference</code>
- * nodes that refer to this entity, when they are created using the
- * <code>createEntityReference</code> method of the <code>Document</code>
- * interface. The DOM Level 2 does not support any mechanism to resolve
- * namespace prefixes.
- * <p>See also the <a href='http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-DOM-Level-2-Core-20001113'>Document Object Model (DOM) Level 2 Core Specification</a>.
