*
* instanceof is not a particularly safe way to test content
* in JDOM because CDATA extends Text ( a CDATA instance is an
* instanceof Text).
*
* This CType enumeration provides a direct and sure mechanism for
* identifying JDOM content.
*
* These can be used in switch-type statements too (which is much neater
* than chained if (instanceof) else if (instanceof) else .... expressions):
*
*
* switch(content.getCType()) {
* case Text :
* .....
* break;
* case CDATA :
* .....
* break;
* ....
* }
