javax.xml.stream
Interface XMLStreamWriter

public interface XMLStreamWriter

The XMLStreamWriter interface specifies how to write XML. The XMLStreamWriter does not perform well formedness checking on its input. However the writeCharacters method is required to escape & , < and > For attribute values the writeAttribute method will escape the above characters plus " to ensure that all character content and attribute values are well formed. Each NAMESPACE and ATTRIBUTE must be individually written.

               throws XMLStreamException

Sets the prefix the uri is bound to. This prefix is bound in the scope of the current START_ELEMENT / END_ELEMENT pair. If this method is called before a START_ELEMENT has been written the prefix is bound in the root scope.

Parameters:

uri - the uri to bind to the prefix, may be null

Throws:

XMLStreamException

setDefaultNamespace

void setDefaultNamespace(String uri)

Binds a URI to the default namespace This URI is bound in the scope of the current START_ELEMENT / END_ELEMENT pair. If this method is called before a START_ELEMENT has been written the uri is bound in the root scope.

XMLStreamException

setNamespaceContext

void setNamespaceContext(NamespaceContext context)
                         throws XMLStreamException

Sets the current namespace context for prefix and uri bindings. This context becomes the root namespace context for writing and will replace the current root namespace context. Subsequent calls to setPrefix and setDefaultNamespace will bind namespaces using the context passed to the method as the root context for resolving namespaces. This method may only be called once at the start of the document. It does not cause the namespaces to be declared. If a namespace URI to prefix mapping is found in the namespace context it is treated as declared and the prefix may be used by the StreamWriter.

Parameters:

context - the namespace context to use for this writer, may not be null

Throws:

XMLStreamException

getNamespaceContext

NamespaceContext getNamespaceContext()

Returns the current namespace context.

Returns:

the current NamespaceContext

Parameters:

name - The name of the property, may not be null

Returns:

The value of the property

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the property is not supported

NullPointerException - if the name is null
