DOMASWriter

public interface DOMASWriter implements LSSerializer
deprecated
A Abstract Schema serialization interface.

DOMASWriters provides an API for serializing Abstract Schemas out in the form of a source Abstract Schema. The Abstract Schema is written to an output stream, the type of which depends on the specific language bindings in use.

DOMASWriter is a generic Abstract Schema serialization interface. It can be applied to both an internal Abstract Schema and/or an external Abstract Schema. DOMASWriter is applied to serialize a single Abstract Schema. Serializing a document with an active Internal Abstract Schema will serialize this internal Abstract Schema with the document as it is part of the Document (see LSSerializer).

See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Abstract Schemas and Load and Save Specification.
