public interface Serializer
To serialize a document using SAX events, create a compatible serializer
and pass it around as a DocumentHandler
. If an I/O error occurs while serializing, it will
be thrown by DocumentHandler.endDocument()
. The SAX serializer
may also be used as DTDHandler
, DeclHandler
and
LexicalHandler
.
To serialize a DOM document or DOM element, create a compatible
serializer and call it's DOMSerializer.serialize(Document)
or DOMSerializer.serialize(Element)
methods.
Both methods would produce a full XML document, to serizlie only
the portion of the document use OutputFormat.setOmitXMLDeclaration(boolean)
and specify no document type.
The OutputFormat
dictates what underlying serialized is used
to serialize the document based on the specified method. If the output
format or method are missing, the default is an XML serializer with
UTF-8 encoding and now indentation.
