Fields Summary

Constructors Summary

Methods Summary
public org.xml.sax.ContentHandler	asContentHandler() Return a {@link ContentHandler} interface into this serializer. If the serializer does not support the {@link ContentHandler} interface, it should return null. return A {@link ContentHandler} interface into this serializer, or null if the serializer is not SAX 2 capable throws IOException An I/O exception occured
public com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.serializer.DOMSerializer	asDOMSerializer() Return a {@link DOMSerializer} interface into this serializer. If the serializer does not support the {@link DOMSerializer} interface, it should return null. return A {@link DOMSerializer} interface into this serializer, or null if the serializer is not DOM capable throws IOException An I/O exception occured
public java.util.Properties	getOutputFormat() Returns the output format properties for this serializer. return The output format in use
public java.io.OutputStream	getOutputStream() Get the output stream where the events will be serialized to. return reference to the result stream, or null of only a writer was set.
public java.io.Writer	getWriter() Get the character stream where the events will be serialized to. return Reference to the result Writer, or null.
public boolean	reset() Resets the serializer. If this method returns true, the serializer may be used for subsequent serialization of new documents. It is possible to change the output format and output stream prior to serializing, or to use the existing output format and output stream. return True if serializer has been reset and can be reused
public void	setOutputFormat(java.util.Properties format) Specifies an output format for this serializer. It the serializer has already been associated with an output format, it will switch to the new format. This method should not be called while the serializer is in the process of serializing a document. param format The output format to use
public void	setOutputStream(java.io.OutputStream output) Specifies an output stream to which the document should be serialized. This method should not be called while the serializer is in the process of serializing a document. The encoding specified in the output {@link Properties} is used, or if no encoding was specified, the default for the selected output method. param output The output stream
public void	setWriter(java.io.Writer writer) Specifies a writer to which the document should be serialized. This method should not be called while the serializer is in the process of serializing a document. The encoding specified for the output {@link Properties} must be identical to the output format used with the writer. param writer The output writer stream
