I tried using XMLStreamWriter (I guess this is a StAX interface). As for the well-formedness requirement, I think this is better than the SAX calls (the program I posted earlier in this thread). Please consider this example: XMLOutputFactory factory = XMLOutputFactory.newInstance(); XMLStreamWriter writer = factory.createXMLStreamWriter(System.out); writer.writeStartDocument(); writer.writeStartElement("x"); writer.writeStartElement("y"); writer.writeAttribute("attr1", "123"); writer.writeEndDocument(); writer.flush(); writer.close(); This produces the output (as intended by me): <?xml version="1.0" ?><x><y attr1="123"></y></x> I think it's hard to create ill-formed XML output with XMLStreamWriter. Or, can we? But the Java docs say - "The XMLStreamWriter does not perform well formedness checking on its input". What does this mean? Can we pretty print the XML output with StaX? Can we use StaX with JDK 1.4, in a stable manner? I need to run this on a PC where I cannot upgrade to JDK 1.6.x. -- Regards, Mukul Gandhi
