Zero-argument default constructor.
/** * Zero-argument default constructor. */
public StreamResult() { }
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.
Params:
  • outputStream – A valid OutputStream reference.
/** * 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. * * @param outputStream A valid OutputStream reference. */

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.
Params:
  • writer – A valid Writer reference.

Construct a StreamResult from a URL.
Params:
  • systemId – Must be a String that conforms to the URI syntax.
/** * Construct a StreamResult from a URL. * * @param systemId Must be a String that conforms to the URI syntax. */
public StreamResult(String systemId) { this.systemId = systemId; }
Construct a StreamResult from a File.
Params:
  • f – Must a non-null File reference.
/** * Construct a StreamResult from a File. * * @param f Must a non-null File reference. */
public StreamResult(File f) { setSystemId(f); }
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.
Params:
  • outputStream – A valid OutputStream reference.

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.
/** * Get the byte stream that was set with setOutputStream. * * @return The byte stream that was set with setOutputStream, or null * if setOutputStream or the ByteStream constructor was not called. */

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.
Params:

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.
/** * Get the character stream that was set with setWriter. * * @return The character stream that was set with setWriter, or null * if setWriter or the Writer constructor was not called. */
public Writer getWriter() { return writer; }
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).
Params:
  • systemId – The system identifier as a URI string.
/** * 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). * * @param systemId The system identifier as a URI string. */
public void setSystemId(String systemId) { this.systemId = systemId; }

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().

Params:
  • f – Must a non-null File reference.
/** * <p>Set the system ID from a <code>File</code> reference.</p> * * <p>Note the use of {@link File#toURI()} and {@link File#toURL()}. * <code>toURI()</code> is preferred and used if possible. * To allow JAXP 1.3 to run on J2SE 1.3, <code>toURL()</code> * is used if a {@link NoSuchMethodException} is thrown by the attempt * to use <code>toURI()</code>.</p> * * @param f Must a non-null File reference. */

Get the system identifier that was set with setSystemId.
Returns:The system identifier that was set with setSystemId, or null if setSystemId was not called.
