Pete,
I see. No, in this case you're not missing anything although you may not
need to rewrite your whole code just to accomodate the new pattern.
Generating XML using SAX events is one way to generate XML, a good way
but not necessarily the only one. Remember that JAXP is quite flexible
and that you could use a DOMSource, for example, if you've already got
code that generates a DOM from your data. The purpose of the examples in
the examples/embedding directory are to show a gradual approach to the
patterns that we suggest people use. The benefit out of this is a
flexible and quick solution.
