Class OutputFormat


  • public class OutputFormat
    extends Object
    Deprecated.
    This class was deprecated in Xerces 2.9.0. It is recommended that new applications use the DOM Level 3 LSSerializer or JAXP's Transformation API for XML (TrAX) for serializing XML and HTML. See the Xerces documentation for more information.
    Specifies an output format to control the serializer. Based on the XSLT specification for output format, plus additional parameters. Used to select the suitable serializer and determine how the document should be formatted on output.

    The two interesting constructors are:
