    • setFeaturesOnXmlReader

      public static void setFeaturesOnXmlReader(String parserFeatures, String parserFeaturesToDisable, boolean validation, boolean namespaces, XMLReader xmlReader)
      Sets features on XML reader instance.
      Parameters:
      validation - Whether to enable validation or not.
      namespaces - Whether to enable namespace support for not.
      xmlReader - The XMLReader instance to configure.
      properties - the Properties to read parser features from
      defaultFeatures - any default features to use

    • getSAXParser

      public static SAXParser getSAXParser(boolean validation, boolean namespaces)
      To get a SAXParser instance which is then used to get either parser or XMLReader.
      Parameters:
      validation - validation flag to set into parser factory
      namespaces - namespace flag to set into parser factory
      Returns:
      the SAXParser for further use

    • getSAXParser

      public static SAXParser getSAXParser(SAXParserFactory saxParserFactory)
      To get a SAXParser instance from a given SAXParserFactory, which is then used to obtain either Parser or XMLReader.
      Returns:
      the SAXParser for further use

    • getSAXParserFactory

      public static SAXParserFactory getSAXParserFactory(boolean validation, boolean namespaces)
      To get a SAXParserFactory instance which is then used to obtain an SAXParser instance.
      Parameters:
      validation - Whether to produce a validating SAX parser.
      namespaces - Whether to provide namespace support.
      Returns:
      the SAXParserFactory for further use

    • instantiateXMLReader

      public static XMLReader instantiateXMLReader(String className)
      Instantiates an XMLReader instance directly, using Class.forName(String) to obtain the Class instance, and uses Class.newInstance() to create the actual instance.
      Parameters:
      className - The class name of the XMLReader instance to be instantiated.
      Returns:
      An XMLReader instance.

    • instantiateParser

      public static Parser instantiateParser(String className)
      Instantiates an Parser instance directly, using Class.forName(String) to obtain the Class instance, and uses Class.newInstance() to create the actual instance.
      Parameters:
      className - The class name of the Parser instance to be instantiated.
      Returns:
      An Parser instance.

    • getSerializerFactory

      public static XMLSerializerFactory getSerializerFactory(String serializerFactoryName)
      Returns the currently configured XMLSerializerFactory instance.
      Parameters:
      serializerFactoryName - the class name of the serializer factory
      Returns:
      XMLSerializerFactory to use by Castor
