Deprecated Interfaces

Interface and Description
org.apache.axiom.attachments.SizeAwareDataSource Please implement SizeAwareDataSource

Deprecated Classes

Class and Description
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.builder.DataHandlerReaderUtils Use the corresponding methods in XMLStreamReaderUtils instead.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.EmptyOMLocation use DummyLocation.INSTANCE instead
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MIMEOutputUtils The features of this class are now implemented by OMMultipartWriter, which has as cleaner API and supports streaming of individual MIME parts, in particular the SOAP part.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.traverse.OMChildrenLegacyQNameIterator
org.apache.axiom.om.util.UUIDGenerator Please use one of the specialized methods in the UIDGenerator class. In contrast to what its name suggests, the UUIDGenerator.getUUID() method doesn't return a UUID. It also doesn't return a valid URN with uuid NID. See AXIS2-4527 for more information.

Deprecated Fields

Field and Description
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MTOMConstants.ATTACHMENTS This was used in old versions of Axis2 as the key identifying the attachments map in the message context. You should no longer use this.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMConstants.DATA_HANDLER
org.apache.axiom.om.OMConstants.IS_BINARY
org.apache.axiom.om.OMConstants.IS_DATA_HANDLERS_AWARE
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MTOMConstants.ROOT_PART

org.apache.axiom.om.util.StAXUtils.getEventTypeString(int) Use XMLEventUtils.getEventTypeString(int) instead
org.apache.axiom.attachments.Part.getFileName() The callers should not no how the part is implemented.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMNamespace.getName() This method is deprecated. Please use getNamespaceURI() method instead.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMText.getNamespace() This API is going away. Please use getTextAsQName() instead.
org.apache.axiom.om.util.StAXUtils.getNetworkDetachedXMLInputFactory() use StAXUtils.getXMLInputFactory(StAXParserConfiguration) with StAXParserConfiguration.STANDALONE
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.builder.StAXBuilder.init(InputStream, String, String, String) Not used anywhere
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.OMNodeEx.internalSerialize(XMLStreamWriter) This method will be removed in a future version of Axiom. It is only here to maintain backward compatibility with projects using this method despite the fact that it is marked as internal.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.OMNodeEx.internalSerializeAndConsume(XMLStreamWriter) This method will be removed in a future version of Axiom. It is only here to maintain backward compatibility with projects using this method despite the fact that it is marked as internal.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMOutputFormat.isAutoCloseWriter()
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.traverse.OMChildrenQNameIterator.isEquals_Legacy(QName, QName)
org.apache.axiom.om.OMXMLStreamReader.isInlineMTOM() This method will be removed in a future release of Axiom. See OMXMLStreamReader.setInlineMTOM(boolean) for more details.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MTOMXMLStreamWriter.isOptimized() Serialization code should use XMLStreamWriterUtils.writeDataHandler(XMLStreamWriter, DataHandler, String, boolean) or XMLStreamWriterUtils.writeDataHandler(XMLStreamWriter, org.apache.axiom.ext.stax.datahandler.DataHandlerProvider, String, boolean) to submit any binary content and let this writer decide whether the content should be written as base64 encoded character data or using xop:Include. This makes optimization entirely transparent for the caller and there should be no need to check if the writer is producing MTOM.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MTOMXMLStreamWriter.isOptimizedThreshold(OMText) Serialization code should use XMLStreamWriterUtils.writeDataHandler(XMLStreamWriter, DataHandler, String, boolean) or XMLStreamWriterUtils.writeDataHandler(XMLStreamWriter, org.apache.axiom.ext.stax.datahandler.DataHandlerProvider, String, boolean) to submit any binary content and let this writer decide whether the content should be written as base64 encoded character data or using xop:Include. Since the writer applies the settings defined in OMOutputFormat (including MTOM thresholds), there is not need for this method anymore.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.util.OMSerializerUtil.isSetPrefixBeforeStartElement(XMLStreamWriter) This method was used to work around a StAX conformance issue in early versions of the XL XP-J parser. This is now handled by StAXDialect, and this method always returns false.
org.apache.axiom.om.util.StAXUtils.releaseXMLInputFactory(XMLInputFactory) Returns an XMLInputFactory instance for reuse.
org.apache.axiom.om.util.StAXUtils.releaseXMLOutputFactory(XMLOutputFactory) Returns an XMLOutputFactory instance for reuse.
org.apache.axiom.om.util.StAXUtils.reset()
org.apache.axiom.om.OMNode.serialize(OutputStream) This method is not meaningful on a node in general, but only on an OMElement.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMNode.serialize(OutputStream, OMOutputFormat) This method is not meaningful on a node in general, but only on an OMElement.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMNode.serialize(Writer) This method is not meaningful on a node in general, but only on an OMElement.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMNode.serialize(Writer, OMOutputFormat) This method is not meaningful on a node in general, but only on an OMElement.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMNode.serializeAndConsume(OutputStream) This method is not meaningful on a node in general, but only on an OMElement.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMNode.serializeAndConsume(OutputStream, OMOutputFormat) This method is not meaningful on a node in general, but only on an OMElement.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMNode.serializeAndConsume(Writer) This method is not meaningful on a node in general, but only on an OMElement.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMNode.serializeAndConsume(Writer, OMOutputFormat) This method is not meaningful on a node in general, but only on an OMElement.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.util.OMSerializerUtil.serializeAttribute(OMAttribute, XMLStreamWriter) use serializeStartpart instead
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.util.OMSerializerUtil.serializeAttributes(OMElement, XMLStreamWriter) Consider using serializeStartpart instead
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.util.OMSerializerUtil.serializeNamespace(OMNamespace, XMLStreamWriter) Use serializeStartpart instead
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.util.OMSerializerUtil.serializeNamespaces(OMElement, XMLStreamWriter) Use serializeStartpart instead
org.apache.axiom.om.OMOutputFormat.setAutoCloseWriter(boolean)
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.builder.StAXOMBuilder.setDoDebug(boolean)
org.apache.axiom.om.OMElement.setFirstChild(OMNode) This method should not be called, un-intentionally. When some one randomly set the first child, all the links handling will not happen inside this method. So we have moved this method to the less visible interface, OMContainerEx.
org.apache.axiom.om.OMXMLStreamReader.setInlineMTOM(boolean) To return optimized base64 content as xop:Include elements, wrap the reader using XOPEncodingStreamReader or use the more generic XOPUtils.getXOPEncodedStream(XMLStreamReader) method. This method introduces unnecessary complexity in the XMLStreamReader implementation used by Axiom and will be removed in a future release.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MIMEOutputUtils.startWritingMime(OutputStream, String) Use OMMultipartWriter instead.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MIMEOutputUtils.writeBodyPart(OutputStream, MimeBodyPart, String) Use OMMultipartWriter instead.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MIMEOutputUtils.writeDataHandlerWithAttachmentsMessage(DataHandler, String, OutputStream, Map, OMOutputFormat) Use OMMultipartWriter instead.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MIMEOutputUtils.writeDataHandlerWithAttachmentsMessage(DataHandler, String, OutputStream, Map, OMOutputFormat, Collection) Use OMMultipartWriter instead.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MIMEOutputUtils.writeMimeBoundary(OutputStream, String) Use OMMultipartWriter instead.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MIMEOutputUtils.writeMM7Message(StringWriter, OutputStream, Attachments, OMOutputFormat, String, String) Axiom only supports standard SwA messages. However, OMMultipartWriter provides a flexible way to build MIME packages for non standard formats such as MM7.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MTOMXMLStreamWriter.writeOptimized(OMText) Serialization code should use XMLStreamWriterUtils.writeDataHandler(XMLStreamWriter, DataHandler, String, boolean) or XMLStreamWriterUtils.writeDataHandler(XMLStreamWriter, org.apache.axiom.ext.stax.datahandler.DataHandlerProvider, String, boolean) to submit any binary content and let this writer decide whether the content should be written as base64 encoded character data or using xop:Include.
org.apache.axiom.om.impl.MIMEOutputUtils.writeSOAPWithAttachmentsMessage(StringWriter, OutputStream, Attachments, OMOutputFormat) Use OMMultipartWriter instead.
