RE: XML serializing [TraxUtility Code] ...FYI - JAXP/Xalan/Xerces issue

[Ke...@bredex.com]

I have discovered and reported issues with Xalan/JAXP (though I believe it
is more of a spec mismatch issue).  The code I attached earlier attempts to
circumvent this issue when possible by using StreamSource instead of
DOMSource.  I hope this helps...


DOMResult and StreamResult differ on adding DOCTYPE:

Here is a piece of code I make tremendous use of.  It has worked quite well
for me, and if nothing else should be a good example to get you started...

I believe the TransformationException is the only legacy class in the
codebase, which you can do with as you please should you choose to reuse
this code.

Ahh.. I thought someone might suggest that. I know Cocoon does things that
way.

There's a problem: Xalan doesn't do what it should with namespaces and this
way of
serializing fails in namespace-intensive documents because of that. The
Xerces serializer
seems to work better (Although if it's the same one, how can this be?)

So I'm rather reluctant to use that trick...
