Class Jaxb2Marshaller

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.oxm.jaxb.Jaxb2Marshaller

All Implemented Interfaces:

Aware, BeanClassLoaderAware, InitializingBean, GenericMarshaller, GenericUnmarshaller, Marshaller, MimeMarshaller, MimeUnmarshaller, Unmarshaller

public class Jaxb2Marshaller
extends Object
implements MimeMarshaller, MimeUnmarshaller, GenericMarshaller, GenericUnmarshaller, BeanClassLoaderAware, InitializingBean

Implementation of the GenericMarshaller interface for JAXB 2.1/2.2, as included in JDK 6 update 4+ and Java 7/8.

The typical usage will be to set either the "contextPath" or the "classesToBeBound" property on this bean, possibly customize the marshaller and unmarshaller by setting properties, schemas, adapters, and listeners, and to refer to it.

Since:

3.0

Method Detail

setContextPaths

public void setContextPaths(String... contextPaths)

Set multiple JAXB context paths. The given array of context paths gets converted to a colon-delimited string, as supported by JAXB.

setContextPath

public void setContextPath(String contextPath)

Set a JAXB context path.

Setting either this property, "classesToBeBound" or "packagesToScan" is required.

getContextPath

public String getContextPath()

Return the JAXB context path.

setClassesToBeBound

public void setClassesToBeBound(Class<?>... classesToBeBound)

Set the list of Java classes to be recognized by a newly created JAXBContext.

Setting either this property, "contextPath" or "packagesToScan" is required.

getClassesToBeBound

public Class<?>[] getClassesToBeBound()

Return the list of Java classes to be recognized by a newly created JAXBContext.

setPackagesToScan

public void setPackagesToScan(String[] packagesToScan)

Set the packages to search for classes with JAXB2 annotations in the classpath. This is using a Spring-bases search and therefore analogous to Spring's component-scan feature (ClassPathBeanDefinitionScanner).

Setting either this property, "contextPath" or "classesToBeBound" is required.

getPackagesToScan

public String[] getPackagesToScan()

Return the packages to search for JAXB2 annotations.

setJaxbContextProperties

public void setJaxbContextProperties(Map<String,?> jaxbContextProperties)

Set the JAXBContext properties. These implementation-specific properties will be set on the underlying JAXBContext.

setMarshallerProperties

public void setMarshallerProperties(Map<String,?> properties)

Set the JAXB Marshaller properties. These properties will be set on the underlying JAXB Marshaller, and allow for features such as indentation.

Parameters:

properties - the properties

See Also:

Marshaller.setProperty(String, Object), Marshaller.JAXB_ENCODING, Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, Marshaller.JAXB_NO_NAMESPACE_SCHEMA_LOCATION, Marshaller.JAXB_SCHEMA_LOCATION

setUnmarshallerProperties

public void setUnmarshallerProperties(Map<String,?> properties)

Set the JAXB Unmarshaller properties. These properties will be set on the underlying JAXB Unmarshaller.

Parameters:

properties - the properties

See Also:

Unmarshaller.setProperty(String, Object)

setMarshallerListener

public void setMarshallerListener(Marshaller.Listener marshallerListener)

Specify the Marshaller.Listener to be registered with the JAXB Marshaller.

setUnmarshallerListener

public void setUnmarshallerListener(Unmarshaller.Listener unmarshallerListener)

Set the Unmarshaller.Listener to be registered with the JAXB Unmarshaller.

setValidationEventHandler

public void setValidationEventHandler(ValidationEventHandler validationEventHandler)

Set the JAXB validation event handler. This event handler will be called by JAXB if any validation errors are encountered during calls to any of the marshal APIs.

setAdapters

public void setAdapters(XmlAdapter<?,?>... adapters)

Specify the XmlAdapters to be registered with the JAXB Marshaller and Unmarshaller

setSchema

public void setSchema(Resource schemaResource)

Set the schema resource to use for validation.

setSchemas

public void setSchemas(Resource... schemaResources)

Set the schema resources to use for validation.

setSchemaLanguage

public void setSchemaLanguage(String schemaLanguage)

Set the schema language. Default is the W3C XML Schema: http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema".

See Also:

XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI, XMLConstants.RELAXNG_NS_URI

setSchemaResourceResolver

public void setSchemaResourceResolver(LSResourceResolver schemaResourceResolver)

Set the resource resolver, as used to load the schema resources.

See Also:

SchemaFactory.setResourceResolver(org.w3c.dom.ls.LSResourceResolver), setSchema(Resource), setSchemas(Resource[])

setLazyInit

public void setLazyInit(boolean lazyInit)

Set whether to lazily initialize the JAXBContext for this marshaller. Default is false to initialize on startup; can be switched to true.

Early initialization just applies if afterPropertiesSet() is called.

setMtomEnabled

public void setMtomEnabled(boolean mtomEnabled)

Specify whether MTOM support should be enabled or not. Default is false: marshalling using XOP/MTOM not being enabled.

setSupportJaxbElementClass

public void setSupportJaxbElementClass(boolean supportJaxbElementClass)

Specify whether the supports(Class) returns true for the JAXBElement class.

Default is false, meaning that supports(Class) always returns false for JAXBElement classes (though supports(Type) can return true, since it can obtain the type parameters of JAXBElement).

This property is typically enabled in combination with usage of classes like MarshallingView, since the ModelAndView does not offer type parameter information at runtime.

See Also:

supports(Class), supports(Type)

setCheckForXmlRootElement

public void setCheckForXmlRootElement(boolean checkForXmlRootElement)

Specify whether the supports(Class) should check for @XmlRootElement annotations.

Default is true, meaning that supports(Class) will check for this annotation. However, some JAXB implementations (i.e. EclipseLink MOXy) allow for defining the bindings in an external definition file, thus keeping the classes annotations free. Setting this property to false supports these JAXB implementations.

See Also:

supports(Class), supports(Type)

setMappedClass

public void setMappedClass(Class<?> mappedClass)

Specify a JAXB mapped class for partial unmarshalling.

See Also:

Unmarshaller.unmarshal(javax.xml.transform.Source, Class)

setProcessExternalEntities

public void setProcessExternalEntities(boolean processExternalEntities)

Indicates whether external XML entities are processed when unmarshalling.

Default is false, meaning that external entities are not resolved. Note that processing of external entities will only be enabled/disabled when the Source passed to unmarshal(Source) is a SAXSource or StreamSource. It has no effect for DOMSource or StAXSource instances.

isProcessExternalEntities

public boolean isProcessExternalEntities()

Returns:

the configured value for whether XML external entities are allowed.

setBeanClassLoader

public void setBeanClassLoader(ClassLoader classLoader)

Description copied from interface: BeanClassLoaderAware

Callback that supplies the bean class loader to a bean instance.

Invoked after the population of normal bean properties but before an initialization callback such as InitializingBean's InitializingBean.afterPropertiesSet() method or a custom init-method.

Specified by:

setBeanClassLoader in interface BeanClassLoaderAware

Parameters:

classLoader - the owning class loader; may be null in which case a default ClassLoader must be used, for example the ClassLoader obtained via ClassUtils.getDefaultClassLoader()

afterPropertiesSet

This method allows the bean instance to perform initialization only possible when all bean properties have been set and to throw an exception in the event of misconfiguration.

Specified by:

afterPropertiesSet in interface InitializingBean

Throws:

Exception - in the event of misconfiguration (such as failure to set an essential property) or if initialization fails.

Description copied from interface: Marshaller

Indicates whether this marshaller can marshal instances of the supplied type.

Specified by:

supports in interface Marshaller

Specified by:

supports in interface Unmarshaller

Indicates whether this marshaller can marshal instances of the supplied generic type.

Specified by:

supports in interface GenericMarshaller

Specified by:

supports in interface GenericUnmarshaller
