Anyone have a clue if there is a way to use the XMLStreamWriter to get:
<elem attr="1"/>
instead of:
<elem attr="1"></elem>
Glen,
in short yes! XMLStreamWriter.writeEmptyElement() should be called from
OM (see example below).
for elements with attributes but no content?
however i wonder why you care - from XML 1,0 and Infoset point of view
thos2e two are equivalent!
If not, this seems VERY BAD.

BTW: to bad that solutoion from XmlPull API did nto survive in StAX i.e.
it was intelligent to do <empty/> by default unless you called
character("") in between.
ps. short example:
package samples;
import java.io.StringWriter;
import javax.xml.stream.XMLOutputFactory;
import javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException;
import javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamWriter;
/**

*/
public class TestSerializer3
{
private final static String SOAP12 =
"http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope";;
public static void doXmlOutput(boolean useRepairing) throws
XMLStreamException {
StringWriter buffer = new StringWriter();
XMLOutputFactory outputFactory = XMLOutputFactory.newInstance();
if (useRepairing) {
outputFactory.setProperty("javax.xml.stream.isRepairingNamespaces",
Boolean.TRUE);
}
XMLStreamWriter out = outputFactory.createXMLStreamWriter(buffer);
out.writeStartDocument();
out.writeStartElement("env", "Envelope", SOAP12);
out.writeNamespace("env", SOAP12);
out.writeNamespace("test", "http://someTestUri";);
out.writeEmptyElement("env", "Body", SOAP12);
out.writeEndElement();
out.writeEndDocument();
out.close();
System.out.println("Created "+(useRepairing ? "" : "not")+"
using repairing :-");
System.out.println(buffer);
}
public static void main(String[] s) throws Exception {
doXmlOutput(false);
doXmlOutput(true);
}
}
