[Groovy] Class StreamingMarkupBuilder

    java.lang.Object
      groovy.xml.streamingmarkupsupport.AbstractStreamingBuilder
          groovy.xml.StreamingMarkupBuilder

    class StreamingMarkupBuilder
    extends AbstractStreamingBuilder

A builder class for creating XML markup. This implementation uses a StreamingMarkupWriter to handle output.

Example:

    System.out << new StreamingMarkupBuilder().bind {
       root {
         a( a1:'one' ) {
           b { mkp.yield( '3 < 5' ) }
           c( a2:'two', 'blah' )
         }
       }
     }

Will output the following String, without newlines or indentation:

    <root>
       <a a1='one'>
         <b>3 &lt; 5</b>
         <c a2='two'>blah</c>
       </a>
     </root>

Note that `mkp` is a special namespace used to escape away from the normal building mode of the builder and get access to helper markup methods 'yield', 'pi', 'comment', 'out', 'namespaces', 'xmlDeclaration' and 'yieldUnescaped'.

Property Detail

### builder

    def builder

### commentClosure

    def commentClosure

  Invoked by calling `mkp.comment`

### declarationClosure

    def declarationClosure

  Invoked by calling `mkp.xmlDeclaration`

### encoding

    def encoding

### noopClosure

    def noopClosure

  Invoked by calling `mkp.yield`. Used to render text to the output stream. Any XML reserved characters will be escaped to ensure well-formedness.

### pendingStack

    def pendingStack

### piClosure

    def piClosure

  Invoked by calling `mkp.pi`

### tagClosure

    def tagClosure

### unescapedClosure

    def unescapedClosure

  Invoked by calling `mkp.yieldUnescaped`. Used to render literal text or markup to the output stream. No escaping is done on the output.

### useDoubleQuotes

    boolean useDoubleQuotes

Constructor Detail

### StreamingMarkupBuilder

    StreamingMarkupBuilder()

Method Detail

### bind

    def bind(def closure)

  Returns a Writable object, which may be used to render the markup directly to a String, or send the output to a stream.

  Examples:

       // get the markup as a string:
       new StreamingMarkupBuilder().bind { div { out << "hello world" } }.toString()

       // send the output directly to a file:
       new StreamingMarkupBuilder().bind { div { out << "hello world" } } \
            .writeTo( new File('myFile.xml').newWriter() )

  Returns:
    a Writable to render the markup

### bindNode

    def bindNode(def node)

  Convenience method for binding a single node. The call `bindNode(node)` is equivalent to `bind{ out << node }`.

  Returns a Writable object, which may be used to render the markup directly to a String, or send the output to a stream.

  Returns:
    a Writable to render the markup

    bind(Closure)

### getQt

    def getQt()
