Write contents of the annotation to the specified object. If the specified target is a DOM object, in-scope namespace declarations for annotation element are added as attribute nodes of the serialized annotation, otherwise the corresponding events for all in-scope namespace declarations are sent via the specified document handler.
Params:
  • target – A target pointer to the annotation target object, i.e. org.w3c.dom.Document, org.w3c.dom.Element , org.xml.sax.ContentHandler.
  • targetType – A target type.
Returns: True if the target is a recognized type and supported by this implementation, otherwise false.
