      Modifier and Type Method Description
      static OutputFormat getOutputFormat​(AbstractProperties properties)  
      static org.xml.sax.Parser getParser​(AbstractProperties properties, java.lang.String features)  
      static javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser getSAXParser​(boolean validation, boolean namespaces)
      To get a SAXParser instance which is then used to get either parser or XMLReader.
      static Serializer getSerializer​(AbstractProperties properties)  
      static XMLSerializerFactory getSerializerFactory​(java.lang.String serializerFactoryName)
      Returns the currently configured XMLSerializerFactory instance.
      static org.xml.sax.Parser instantiateParser​(java.lang.String className)
      Instantiates an Parser instance directly, using Class.forName(String) to obtain the Class instance, and uses Class.newInstance() to create the actual instance.
      static org.xml.sax.XMLReader instantiateXMLReader​(java.lang.String className)
      Instantiates an XMLReader instance directly, using Class.forName(String) to obtain the Class instance, and uses Class.newInstance() to create the actual instance.
      static void setFeaturesOnXmlReader​(java.lang.String parserFeatures, java.lang.String parserFeaturesToDisable, boolean validation, boolean namespaces, org.xml.sax.XMLReader xmlReader)
      Sets features on XML reader instance.

                                          org.xml.sax.XMLReader xmlReader)
        Sets features on XML reader instance.
        Parameters:
        properties - the Properties to read parser features from
        defaultFeatures - any default features to use
        validation - Whether to enable validation or not.
        namespaces - Whether to enable namespace support for not.
        xmlReader - The XMLReader instance to configure.

      • getSAXParser

        To get a SAXParser instance which is then used to get either parser or XMLReader.
        Parameters:
        validation - validation flag to set into parser factory
        namespaces - namespace flag to set into parser factory
        Returns:
        the SAXParser for further use
