All Implemented Interfaces:

Source

public class JAXBSource

extends SAXSource

JAXP Source implementation that marshals a JAXB-generated object.

This utility class is useful to combine JAXB with other Java/XML technologies.

The following example shows how to use JAXB to marshal a document for transformation by XSLT.

       MyObject o = // get JAXB content tree
       
       // jaxbContext is a JAXBContext object from which 'o' is created.
       JAXBSource source = new JAXBSource( jaxbContext, o );
       
       // set up XSLT transformation
       TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
       Transformer t = tf.newTransformer(new StreamSource("test.xsl"));
       
       // run transformation
       t.transform(source,new StreamResult(System.out));

Constructor Detail

JAXBSource

public JAXBSource(JAXBContext context,
                  java.lang.Object contentObject)
           throws JAXBException

Creates a new Source for the given content object.

Parameters:

context - JAXBContext that was used to create contentObject. This context is used to create a new instance of marshaller and must not be null.

contentObject - An instance of a JAXB-generated class, which will be used as a Source (by marshalling it into XML). It must not be null.

Throws:

JAXBException - if an error is encountered while creating the JAXBSource or if either of the parameters are null.

JAXBSource

public JAXBSource(Marshaller marshaller,
                  java.lang.Object contentObject)
           throws JAXBException

Creates a new Source for the given content object.

Parameters:

marshaller - A marshaller instance that will be used to marshal contentObject into XML. This must be created from a JAXBContext that was used to build contentObject and must not be null.

contentObject - An instance of a JAXB-generated class, which will be used as a Source (by marshalling it into XML). It must not be null.

Throws:

JAXBException - if an error is encountered while creating the JAXBSource or if either of the parameters are null.
