I think using
import org.apache.xml.serialize.OutputFormat;
import org.apache.xml.serialize.XMLSerializer;
so not OK. When I remember correctly, these classes are not available
when using a plain SUN JVM. Is that possible?
Yes, that's correct, this would not work on the Sun JVM without a
separately installed Xerces.
I think we changed in the past the whole UIMA code, that we don't have
to use these classes. Is it possible to use the
org.apache.uima.util.XMLSerializer that can also write formatted output
using javax.xml.transform.Transformer with javax.xml.transform.OutputKeys?
Yes, I think that's the right thing to do. The
org.apache.uima.util.XMLSerializer uses standard XSLT support that's
included in every JVM as part of the javax.xml.transform package, so
it is portable.
