All Implemented Interfaces:

ResourceAwareItemWriterItemStream<T>, ItemStream, ItemWriter<T>, InitializingBean

public class StaxEventItemWriter<T>
extends ExecutionContextUserSupport
implements ResourceAwareItemWriterItemStream<T>, InitializingBean

An implementation of ItemWriter which uses StAX and Marshaller for serializing object to XML. This item writer also provides restart, statistics and transaction features by implementing corresponding interfaces. The implementation is *not* thread-safe.

Constructor Detail

StaxEventItemWriter

public StaxEventItemWriter()

Method Detail

setResource

public void setResource(Resource resource)

Set output file.

Specified by:

setResource in interface ResourceAwareItemWriterItemStream<T>

Parameters:

resource - the output file

setMarshaller

public void setMarshaller(org.springframework.oxm.Marshaller marshaller)

Set Object to XML marshaller.

Parameters:

marshaller - the Object to XML marshaller

setHeaderCallback

public void setHeaderCallback(StaxWriterCallback headerCallback)

headerCallback is called before writing any items.

setFooterCallback

public void setFooterCallback(StaxWriterCallback footerCallback)

footerCallback is called after writing all items but before closing the file

setTransactional

public void setTransactional(boolean transactional)

Flag to indicate that writes should be deferred to the end of a transaction if present. Defaults to true.

Parameters:

transactional - the flag to set

setForceSync

public void setForceSync(boolean forceSync)

Flag to indicate that changes should be force-synced to disk on flush. Defaults to false, which means that even with a local disk changes could be lost if the OS crashes in between a write and a cache flush. Setting to true may result in slower performance for usage patterns involving many frequent writes.

Parameters:

forceSync - the flag value to set

getEncoding

public String getEncoding()

Get used encoding.

Returns:

the encoding used

setEncoding

public void setEncoding(String encoding)

Set encoding to be used for output file.

Parameters:

encoding - the encoding to be used

getVersion

public String getVersion()

Get XML version.

Returns:

the XML version used

setVersion

public void setVersion(String version)

Set XML version to be used for output XML.

Parameters:

version - the XML version to be used

getRootTagName

public String getRootTagName()

Get the tag name of the root element.

Returns:

the root element tag name

setRootTagName

public void setRootTagName(String rootTagName)

Set the tag name of the root element. If not set, default name is used ("root"). Namespace URI and prefix can also be set optionally using the notation:

 {uri}prefix:root
 

The prefix is optional (defaults to empty), but if it is specified then the uri must be provided. In addition you might want to declare other namespaces using the root attributes.

Parameters:

rootTagName - the tag name to be used for the root element

getRootTagNamespacePrefix

public String getRootTagNamespacePrefix()

Get the namespace prefix of the root element. Empty by default.

Returns:

the rootTagNamespacePrefix

getRootTagNamespace

public String getRootTagNamespace()

Get the namespace of the root element.

Returns:

the rootTagNamespace

getRootElementAttributes

public Map<String,String> getRootElementAttributes()

Get attributes of the root element.

Returns:

attributes of the root element

setRootElementAttributes

public void setRootElementAttributes(Map<String,String> rootElementAttributes)

Set the root element attributes to be written. If any of the key names begin with "xmlns:" then they are treated as namespace declarations.

Parameters:

rootElementAttributes - attributes of the root element

setOverwriteOutput

public void setOverwriteOutput(boolean overwriteOutput)

Set "overwrite" flag for the output file. Flag is ignored when output file processing is restarted.

Parameters:

overwriteOutput -

setSaveState

public void setSaveState(boolean saveState)

afterPropertiesSet

public void afterPropertiesSet()
                        throws Exception

Specified by:

afterPropertiesSet in interface InitializingBean

Throws:

Exception

See Also:

InitializingBean.afterPropertiesSet()

open

public void open(ExecutionContext executionContext)

Open the output source

Specified by:
