org.springframework.http.converter.xml.Jaxb2RootElementHttpMessageConverter

All Implemented Interfaces:

HttpMessageConverter<Object>

public class Jaxb2RootElementHttpMessageConverter
extends AbstractJaxb2HttpMessageConverter<Object>

Implementation of HttpMessageConverter that can read and write XML using JAXB2.

This converter can read classes annotated with XmlRootElement and XmlType, and write classes annotated with XmlRootElement, or subclasses thereof.

Note: When using Spring's Marshaller/Unmarshaller abstractions from spring-oxm, you should use the MarshallingHttpMessageConverter instead.

Since:

3.0

Constructor Details

Jaxb2RootElementHttpMessageConverter

public Jaxb2RootElementHttpMessageConverter()

Method Details

setSupportDtd

public void setSupportDtd(boolean supportDtd)

Indicate whether DTD parsing should be supported.

Default is false meaning that DTD is disabled.

isSupportDtd

public boolean isSupportDtd()

Return whether DTD parsing is supported.

setProcessExternalEntities

public void setProcessExternalEntities(boolean processExternalEntities)

Indicate whether external XML entities are processed when converting to a Source.

Default is false, meaning that external entities are not resolved.

Note: setting this option to true also automatically sets setSupportDtd(boolean) to true.

isProcessExternalEntities

public boolean isProcessExternalEntities()

Return whether XML external entities are allowed.

canRead

public boolean canRead(Class<?> clazz,
 @Nullable MediaType mediaType)

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

This implementation checks if the given class is supported, and if the supported media types include the given media type.

Specified by:

canRead in interface HttpMessageConverter<Object>

Overrides:

canRead in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Object>

Parameters:

clazz - the class to test for readability

mediaType - the media type to read (can be null if not specified); typically the value of a Content-Type header.

Returns:

true if readable; false otherwise

canWrite

public boolean canWrite(Class<?> clazz,
 @Nullable MediaType mediaType)

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

This implementation checks if the given class is supported, and if the supported media types include the given media type.

Specified by:

canWrite in interface HttpMessageConverter<Object>

Overrides:

canWrite in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Object>

Parameters:

clazz - the class to test for writability

mediaType - the media type to write (can be null if not specified); typically the value of an Accept header.

Returns:

true if writable; false otherwise

supports

protected boolean supports(Class<?> clazz)

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

Indicates whether the given class is supported by this converter.

Specified by:

supports in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Object>

Parameters:

clazz - the class to test for support

Returns:

true if supported; false otherwise

readFromSource

protected Object readFromSource(Class<?> clazz,
 HttpHeaders headers,
 Source source)
                         throws Exception

Description copied from class: AbstractXmlHttpMessageConverter

Abstract template method called from AbstractHttpMessageConverter.read(Class, HttpInputMessage).

Specified by:

readFromSource in class AbstractXmlHttpMessageConverter<Object>

Parameters:

clazz - the type of object to return

headers - the HTTP input headers

source - the HTTP input body

Returns:

the converted object

Throws:

Exception - in case of I/O or conversion errors

processSource

protected Source processSource(Source source,
 @Nullable Charset charset)

Process source with charset.

Parameters:

source - source to process

charset - charset to use

Returns:

source

Since:

6.2.8

writeToResult

protected void writeToResult(Object value,
 HttpHeaders headers,
 Result result)
                      throws Exception

Description copied from class: AbstractXmlHttpMessageConverter

Abstract template method called from AbstractXmlHttpMessageConverter.writeInternal(Object, HttpOutputMessage).

Specified by:

writeToResult in class AbstractXmlHttpMessageConverter<Object>

Parameters:

value - the object to write to the output message

headers - the HTTP output headers

result - the HTTP output body

Throws:

Exception - in case of I/O or conversion errors

supportsRepeatableWrites

protected boolean supportsRepeatableWrites(Object o)

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

Indicates whether this message converter can write the given object multiple times.

The default implementation returns false.

Overrides:

supportsRepeatableWrites in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Object>

Parameters:

o - the object t

Returns:

true if t can be written repeatedly; false otherwise
