Transform XML using Freemarker from an OMElement

["Jeudy, Guillaume" <gj...@teksystems.com>]

Hi,
 
I'm using Axis2 client stubs generated by wdsl2java tool. It works great but the WSDL file i'm using doesn't define everything so I get OMElements that are in free form on service method response objects. What I want to do is transform an OMElement tree into another XML representation.
 
Are there any recommended ways of doing this? I see I can create a new StAXSource(omElementInstance.getXMLStreamReader()) and then use this in Transformer.transform(). Apparently the Transformer is for exclusive use with XSLT stylesheets... 
 
I would like to use FreeMarker because it's more simple and will achieve my goal more effectively but I don't see this being possible right now. More specifically I need an InputSource from the OMElement and haven't found a way of getting this through AXIOM api.
 
Any inputs is appreciated,
 
Thanks,
-Guillaume

Re: Transform XML using Freemarker from an OMElement

If FreeMarker only supports XML documents from an InputSource object,
than you have no other choice than to serialize the OMElement and to
pass the result to FreeMarker as an InputSource referencing an
InputStream. If FreeMarker has support for other APIs (e.g. JAXP
Source objects), than there may be better solutions.
