Class XMLStreamWriter
Object
dw.io.XMLStreamWriter
The XMLStreamWriter can be used to write small and large XML feeds.

Note: when this class is used with sensitive data, be careful in persisting sensitive information to disk.

The XMLStreamWriter does not perform well-formedness checking on its input. However the writeCharacters method escapes '&' , '<' and '>'. For attribute values the writeAttribute method escapes the above characters plus '"' to ensure that all character content and attribute values are well formed.

The following example illustrates how to use this class: 

 var fileWriter : FileWriter = new FileWriter(file, "UTF-8");
 var xsw : XMLStreamWriter = new XMLStreamWriter(fileWriter);

 xsw.writeStartDocument();
 xsw.writeStartElement("products");
   xsw.writeStartElement("product");
   xsw.writeAttribute("id", "p42");
     xsw.writeStartElement("name");
       xsw.writeCharacters("blue t-shirt");
     xsw.writeEndElement();
     xsw.writeStartElement("rating");
       xsw.writeCharacters("2.0");
     xsw.writeEndElement();
   xsw.writeEndElement();
 xsw.writeEndElement();
 xsw.writeEndDocument();

 xsw.close();
 fileWriter.close();

The code above will write the following to file: 

 <?xml version="1.0" ?>
 <products>
   <product id="p42">
     <name>a blue t-shirt</name>
     <rating>2.0</rating>
   </product>
 </products>

Constructor Detail
XMLStreamWriter
public XMLStreamWriter(writer : Writer)
Constructs the XMLStreamWriter for a writer.
Parameters:
writer - the writer for which the XMLStreamWriter is constructed.
Method Detail
close
close() : void
Close this writer and free any resources associated with the writer. This method does not close the underlying writer.
flush

getDefaultNamespace
getDefaultNamespace() : String
Returns the current default name space.
Returns:
the current default name space.
getPrefix
getPrefix(uri : String) : String
Gets the prefix the URI is bound to.

uri - the URI to use.
Returns:
the prefix or null.
setDefaultNamespace
setDefaultNamespace(uri : String) : void

setPrefix
setPrefix(prefix : String, uri : String) : void
Sets the prefix the uri is bound to. This prefix is bound in the scope of the current START_ELEMENT / END_ELEMENT pair. If this method is called before a START_ELEMENT has been written the prefix is bound in the root scope.
Parameters:
prefix - the prefix to bind to the uri, may not be null.
uri - the uri to bind to the prefix, may be null.
