org.jdom.output
public class XMLOutputter extends Object implements Cloneable
getPrettyFormat
. For whitespace-normalized
output, use getCompactFormat
.
There are
methods to print any of
the standard JDOM classes, including Document and Element, to either a Writer
or an OutputStream. Warning: When outputting to a Writer, make sure
the writer's encoding matches the encoding setting in the Format object. This
ensures the encoding in which the content is written (controlled by the
Writer configuration) matches the encoding placed in the document's XML
declaration (controlled by the XMLOutputter). Because a Writer cannot be
queried for its encoding, the information must be passed to the Format
manually in its constructor or via the
output(...)
Format
method. The default encoding is
UTF-8.
The methods
are for
convenience only; for top performance you should call one of the outputString(...)
methods and pass in your own Writer or
OutputStream if possible.
output(...)
XML declarations are always printed on their own line followed by a line
seperator (this doesn't change the semantics of the document). To omit
printing of the declaration use
Format
. To omit printing of the
encoding in the declaration use Format
.
Unfortunatly there is currently no way to know the original encoding of the
document.
Empty elements are by default printed as <empty/>, but this can be
configured with Format
to cause
them to be expanded to <empty></empty>.
