Writing the Stream

The final step is to write the XML stream. Note that the stream is flushed and closed after the final EndDocument is written:

xtw = xof.createXMLStreamWriter(new FileWriter(fileName));
xtw.writeComment("all elements here are explicitly in the HTML namespace");
xtw.writeStartDocument("utf-8","1.0");
xtw.setPrefix("html", "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","html");
xtw.writeNamespace("html", "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","head");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","title");
xtw.writeCharacters("Frobnostication");
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","body");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","p");
xtw.writeCharacters("Moved to");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","a");
xtw.writeAttribute("href","http://frob.com");
xtw.writeCharacters("here");
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndDocument();
xtw.flush();
xtw.close();
