Hi Laslo,
The problem comes from the fact that you are setting your own
DocumentHandler. This isn't a bug in Castor, but rather how you have
your Serializer configured.
Since you are creating your own Serializer you'll need to configure it
yourself to omit the XML declaration. Do the following before you call
serializer.asDocumentHandler();
OutputFormat format = Configuration.getOutputFormat();
format.setOmitXMLDeclaration(true);
serializer.setOutputFormat( format );
Marshaller#setMarshalAsDocument will only work when you've passed in a
writer because it will configure the internal serializer. I'll have to
add this to the documentation.
Thanks,
--Keith
