      • startDocument

        void startDocument()

      • endDocument

        void endDocument()

      • startElement

        void startElement​(String name)

      • startElement

        void startElement​(String name,
                  Object... attrs)

      • endElement

        void endElement()

      • characters

        void characters​(String data)

      • startSequence

        void startSequence​(String name,
                   String subName)
        Informs the writer that a sequence of elements of the same name is starting.

        For XML, is equivalent to startElement(name).

        For JSON, initiates the array construct:

        "name" : [
          { ... },
          { ... }
        ]
        Parameters:
        name - Element name
        subName - Child element name

      • endSequence

        void endSequence()
        Informs the writer that a sequence of elements of the same name has ended.

      • textElement

        void textElement​(String name,
                 Object data)
        Generates a text-only element, <name>data</name>.

        For XML, this is equivalent to

        startElement(name);
        characters(data);
        endElement();
        but for JSON, generates "name": "data".
        Parameters:
        name - Name of element
        data - Text content of element

      • completeBeforeElement

        void completeBeforeElement​(String tagName)

      • verbatim

        void verbatim​(String text)
        Sends a piece of text verbatim through the writer. It must be a piece of well-formed XML.

      • flush

        void flush()
        Flushes any unwritten output.
