XML Support - Dealing with XML Payloads
Spring Integration’s XML support extends the core of Spring Integration with the following components:
You need to include this dependency into your project:
-
Maven
-
Gradle
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.integration</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-integration-xml</artifactId>
<version>6.2.8-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
compile "org.springframework.integration:spring-integration-xml:6.2.8-SNAPSHOT"
These components make working with XML messages in Spring Integration simpler.
The messaging components work with XML that is represented in a range of formats, including instances of java.lang.String
, org.w3c.dom.Document
, and javax.xml.transform.Source
.
However, where a DOM representation is required (for example, in order to evaluate an XPath expression), the String
payload is converted into the required type and then converted back to String
.
Components that require an instance of DocumentBuilder
create a namespace-aware instance if you do not provide one.
When you require greater control over document creation, you can provide an appropriately configured instance of DocumentBuilder
.
