Method Detail

startElement

public boolean startElement(XmlWriter xw,
                   Element parent,
                   Element e,
                   ElementMetadata<?,?> metadata)
                     throws IOException

Description copied from interface: XmlGenerator.ElementGenerator

Start an element. If an ElementGenerator instances writes a full element tag, it should return false to indicate that textContent and child elements should not be added.

Specified by:

startElement in interface XmlGenerator.ElementGenerator

Parameters:

xw - the xml writer to write to.

parent - the parent element.

e - the element to start.

metadata - the metadata for the element

Returns:

true if child elements should be written, false if the element was fully written.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs while writing to the writer.

getName

protected QName getName(Element e,
            ElementMetadata<?,?> metadata)

Returns the QName of an element, possibly using the given metadata for the name if it is not null.

getNamespaces

protected Collection<XmlNamespace> getNamespaces(Element parent,
                                     Element e,
                                     ElementMetadata<?,?> metadata)

Get a collection of namespaces for the current element and parent. This will only return namespaces for the root element, because we bubble all namespaces up to the root for wire efficiency.

getAttributes

protected List<XmlWriter.Attribute> getAttributes(Element e,
                                      ElementMetadata<?,?> metadata)

Get a list of attributes for the given element.

textContent

public void textContent(XmlWriter xw,
               Element e,
               ElementMetadata<?,?> metadata)
                 throws IOException

Description copied from interface: XmlGenerator.ElementGenerator

Write the text content for an element.

Specified by:

textContent in interface XmlGenerator.ElementGenerator

Throws:

IOException

endElement

public void endElement(XmlWriter xw,
              Element e,
              ElementMetadata<?,?> metadata)
                throws IOException

Description copied from interface: XmlGenerator.ElementGenerator

End an element, writing a close tag if needed.

Specified by:

endElement in interface XmlGenerator.ElementGenerator

Throws:
