  • Constructor Details

    • XmlWriterSupport

      public XmlWriterSupport()
      Default Constructor. The created XMLWriterSupport will not have no safe tags and starts with an indention level of 0.
    • XmlWriterSupport

      public XmlWriterSupport(TagDescription safeTags, String indentString)
      Creates a new support instance.
      Parameters:
      safeTags - the tags that are safe for line breaks.
      indentString - the indent string.
    • XmlWriterSupport

      public XmlWriterSupport(TagDescription safeTags, String indentString, String lineseparator)
      Create a new XmlWriterSupport instance.
      Parameters:

  • Method Details

    • isHtmlCompatiblityMode

      public boolean isHtmlCompatiblityMode()
      Checks, whether the HTML compatibility mode is enabled. In HTML compatibility mode, closed empty tags will have a space between the tagname and the close-indicator.
      Returns:
      true, if the HTML compatiblity mode is enabled, false otherwise.
    • setHtmlCompatiblityMode

      public void setHtmlCompatiblityMode(boolean htmlCompatiblityMode)
      Enables or disables the HTML Compatibility mode. In HTML compatibility mode, closed empty tags will have a space between the tagname and the close-indicator.
      Parameters:
      htmlCompatiblityMode - true, if the HTML compatiblity mode is enabled, false otherwise.
    • isAlwaysAddNamespace

      public boolean isAlwaysAddNamespace()
      Checks, whether the XML writer should always add a namespace prefix to the attributes. The XML specification leaves it up to the application on how to handle unqualified attributes. If this mode is enabled, all attributes will always be fully qualified - which removed the ambugity but may not be compatible with simple, non namespace aware parsers.
      Returns:
      true, if all attributes should be qualified, false otherwise.
    • setAlwaysAddNamespace

      public void setAlwaysAddNamespace(boolean alwaysAddNamespace)
      Defines, whether the XML writer should always add a namespace prefix to the attributes. The XML specification leaves it up to the application on how to handle unqualified attributes. If this mode is enabled, all attributes will always be fully qualified - which removed the ambuigity but may not be compatible with simple, non namespace aware parsers.
      Parameters:
      alwaysAddNamespace - set to true, if all attributes should be qualified, false otherwise.
    • getAdditionalIndent

      public int getAdditionalIndent()
      Returns the indent level that should be added to the automaticly computed indentation.
      Returns:
      the indent level.
    • setAdditionalIndent

      public void setAdditionalIndent(int additionalIndent)
      Defines the indent level that should be added to the automaticly computed indentation.
      Parameters:
      additionalIndent - the indent level.
    • getLineSeparator

      Returns the line separator.
      Returns:
      the line separator.
    • writeXmlDeclaration

    • addImpliedNamespace

      public void addImpliedNamespace(String uri, String prefix)
      Adds an implied namespace to the document. Such a namespace is not explicitly declared, it is assumed that the xml-parser knows the prefix by some other means. Using implied namespaces for standalone documents is almost always a bad idea.
      Parameters:
      uri - the uri of the namespace.
      prefix - the defined prefix.
    • copyNamespaces

      public void copyNamespaces(XmlWriterSupport writerSupport)
      Copies all currently declared namespaces of the given XmlWriterSupport instance as new implied namespaces into this instance.
      Parameters:
      writerSupport - the Xml-writer from where to copy the declared namespaces.
    • isNamespaceDefined

      public boolean isNamespaceDefined(String uri)
      Checks, whether the given URI is defined as valid namespace.
      Parameters:

      Checks, whether the given namespace prefix is defined.
      Parameters:
      prefix - the namespace prefix.
      Returns:
      true, if the prefix is defined, false otherwise.
    • getNamespaces

      public Properties getNamespaces()
      Returns all namespaces as properties-collection. This reflects the currently defined namespaces, therefore calls to writeOpenTag(..) might cause this method to return different collections.
      Returns:
      the defined namespaces.
    • computeNamespaces

      protected DeclaredNamespaces computeNamespaces()
      Computes the current collection of defined namespaces.

      namespaceUri - the namespace uri for the element (can be null).
      name - the tag name.
      attributes - the attributes.
