Class SerializerFactory
java.lang.Object
org.apache.xml.serializer.SerializerFactory
public final class SerializerFactory
extends java.lang.Object
This class is a public API, it is a factory for creating serializers.
The properties object passed to the getSerializer() method should be created by
the OutputPropertiesFactory. Although the properties object
used to create a serializer does not need to be obtained
from OutputPropertiesFactory,
using this factory ensures that the default key/value properties
are set for the given output "method".
The standard property keys supported are: "method", "version", "encoding",
"omit-xml-declaration", "standalone", doctype-public",
"doctype-system", "cdata-section-elements", "indent", "media-type".
These property keys and their values are described in the XSLT recommendation,
see
XSLT 1.0 recommendation
The value of the "cdata-section-elements" property key is a whitespace
separated list of elements. If the element is in a namespace then
value is passed in this format: {uri}localName
The non-standard property keys supported are defined in
OutputPropertiesFactory
.
getSerializer
public static Serializer getSerializer(Properties format)
Returns a serializer for the specified output method. The output method
is specified by the value of the property associated with the "method" key.
If no implementation exists that supports the specified output method
an exception of some type will be thrown.
For a list of the output "method" key values see
Method
.
format
- The output format, minimally the "method" property must be set.
