R: Accessors for name of XML document

docName {XML} | R Documentation

## Accessors for name of XML document

### Description

These functions and methods allow us to query and set the “name” of an XML document. This is intended to be its URL or file name or a description of its origin if raw XML content provided as a string.

### Usage

    docName(doc, ...)

### Arguments

`doc` | the XML document object, of class `XMLInternalDocument` or `XMLDocument`.
`...` | additional methods for methods

### Value

A character string giving the name. If the document was created from text, this is `NA` (of class character).

The assignment function returns the updated object, but the R assignment operation will return the value on the right of the assignment!
