Method Summary | |
---|---|
void | close() |
void | flushPending()
A SerializationHandler accepts SAX-like events, so
it can accumulate attributes or namespace nodes after
a startElement().
|
Transformer | getTransformer()
Get the transformer associated with the serializer. |
void | serialize(Node node)
Notify that the serializer should take this DOM node as input to be
serialized.
|
void | setContentHandler(ContentHandler ch)
Set the SAX Content handler that the serializer sends its output to. |
void | setDTDEntityExpansion(boolean expand)
Default behavior is to expand DTD entities,
that is the initall default value is true. |
boolean | setEscaping(boolean escape)
Turns special character escaping on/off.
|
void | setIndentAmount(int spaces)
Set the number of spaces to indent for each indentation level. |
void | setNamespaceMappings(NamespaceMappings mappings)
Used only by TransformerSnapshotImpl to restore the serialization
to a previous state.
|
void | setTransformer(Transformer transformer)
Set the transformer associated with the serializer. |
If the SerializationHandler has a Writer or OutputStream, a call to this method will flush such accumulated events as a closed start tag for an element.
If the SerializationHandler wraps a ContentHandler, a call to this method will flush such accumulated events as a SAX (not SAX-like) calls to startPrefixMapping() and startElement().
If one calls endDocument() then one need not call this method since a call to endDocument() will do what this method does. However, in some circumstances, such as with document fragments, endDocument() is not called and it may be necessary to call this method to flush any pending events.
For performance reasons this method should not be called very often.
Returns: Transformer the transformer associated with the serializer.
Parameters: node the DOM node to be serialized.
Throws: IOException

Parameters: expand true if DTD entities are to be expanded, false if they are to be left as DTD entity references.
Parameters: escape true if escaping is to be set on.
Parameters: spaces the number of spaces to indent for each indentation level.
Parameters: mappings NamespaceMappings
Parameters: transformer the transformer associated with the serializer.
