Generate a PDF in memory with 0.20.5

[Johannes Becker <Jo...@gmx.net>]

Hi,

I want to generate a PDF in memory (never written to
disk) and send it right away as an email-attachment.

My problem is that I haven't found a clue in the API how to generate a pdf in memory.

Is this posiible with 0.20.5? If possible: How (code snippets appreciated)?

Cheers
Jonny

See http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.20.5/embedding.html.

In particular in the Basics section it says: The simplest way to use 
Driver is to instantiate it with the InputSource and OutputStream, then 
set the renderer desired and call the run method.

Just use a ByteArrayOutputStream and you got your pdf in memory.

There is a more complex example using a ByteArrayOutputStream in 
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.20.5/servlets.html.
