    • StreamResult

      public StreamResult()
      Zero-argument default constructor.
    • StreamResult

      public StreamResult(java.io.OutputStream outputStream)
      Construct a StreamResult from a byte stream. Normally, a stream should be used rather than a reader, so that the transformer may use instructions contained in the transformation instructions to control the encoding.
      Parameters:
      outputStream - A valid OutputStream reference.
    • StreamResult

      public StreamResult(java.io.Writer writer)
      Construct a StreamResult from a character stream. Normally, a stream should be used rather than a reader, so that the transformer may use instructions contained in the transformation instructions to control the encoding. However, there are times when it is useful to write to a character stream, such as when using a StringWriter.
      Parameters:
      writer - A valid Writer reference.
    • StreamResult

      public StreamResult(java.lang.String systemId)
      Construct a StreamResult from a URL.
      Parameters:
      systemId - Must be a String that conforms to the URI syntax.
    • StreamResult

      public StreamResult(java.io.File f)
      Construct a StreamResult from a File.
      Parameters:
      f - Must a non-null File reference.

    • setOutputStream

      public void setOutputStream(java.io.OutputStream outputStream)
      Set the ByteStream that is to be written to. Normally, a stream should be used rather than a reader, so that the transformer may use instructions contained in the transformation instructions to control the encoding.
      Parameters:
      outputStream - A valid OutputStream reference.
    • getOutputStream

      public java.io.OutputStream getOutputStream()
      Get the byte stream that was set with setOutputStream.
      Returns:
      The byte stream that was set with setOutputStream, or null if setOutputStream or the ByteStream constructor was not called.
    • setWriter

      public void setWriter(java.io.Writer writer)
      Set the writer that is to receive the result. Normally, a stream should be used rather than a writer, so that the transformer may use instructions contained in the transformation instructions to control the encoding. However, there are times when it is useful to write to a writer, such as when using a StringWriter.
      Parameters:
      writer - A valid Writer reference.
    • getWriter

      public java.io.Writer getWriter()
      Get the character stream that was set with setWriter.
      Returns:
      The character stream that was set with setWriter, or null if setWriter or the Writer constructor was not called.
    • setSystemId

      public void setSystemId(java.lang.String systemId)
      Set the systemID that may be used in association with the byte or character stream, or, if neither is set, use this value as a writeable URI (probably a file name).
      Specified by:
      setSystemId in interface Result
      Parameters:
      systemId - The system identifier as a URI string.
    • setSystemId

      public void setSystemId(java.io.File f)

      Set the system ID from a File reference.

      Note the use of File.toURI() and File.toURL(). toURI() is preferred and used if possible. To allow JAXP 1.3 to run on J2SE 1.3, toURL() is used if a NoSuchMethodException is thrown by the attempt to use toURI().

      Parameters:
      f - Must a non-null File reference.
    • getSystemId

      public java.lang.String getSystemId()
      Get the system identifier that was set with setSystemId.
      Specified by:
      getSystemId in interface Result
      Returns:
      The system identifier that was set with setSystemId, or null if setSystemId was not called.
