Class com.ibm.xml.xpointer.AttrTerm 

java.lang.Object
    |
    +----com.ibm.xml.xpointer.AttrTerm
public class AttrTerm
extends java.lang.Object
implements OtherTerm
The AttrTerm class provides support for attribute location terms in XPointers. Absolute and relative location terms have as their target one or more elements. In order to allow attributes within an element to be the target of an XPointer, the attribute location term is provided.

An attribute term specifies a location in terms of another location, called the location source. The location source is the entire resource if there are no preceding location terms; otherwise it is the location specified by the preceding term (which might be relative to a location term before that).

The attribute term has the single keyword attr which takes only an attribute name as a selector and returns the attribute's value.

Following is an example of an attribute XPointer that returns the value of the attribute named department of the element with ID a23: id(a23).attr(department)
