RE: DOM to SAX InputSource

[Aleksandar Milanovic]

Hi,   This is not very efficient though (you're serializing the document to a string first, right?). I think there's a class somewhere in GNU that generates SAX events directly from a DOM document. Another place to look would be �lfred. I remember reading about this in O'Reilly's SAX2 book, which I'd recommend buying. A quick search on Google yields the following link too: http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/apidocs/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/trax/DOM2SAX.html   Cheers, Alex -----Original Message----- From: Prasanna Kumar AG [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: February 17, 2003 10:42 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: DOM to SAX InputSource Ok! Got a Solution! Used StringWriter to hold the XML DOM tree and used it as input to SAX InputSource.         DOMSource objXMLSource = new DOMSource(sourceDocument);       StringWriter stringOut = new StringWriter();       StreamResult objResultStream = new StreamResult(stringOut);       Transformer objTransformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();       objTransformer.transform(objXMLSource, objResultStream);       String xmlString = stringOut.toString();       ByteArrayInputStream stream =    new ByteArrayInputStream(xmlString.getBytes());       InputSource is = new InputSource(stream);   Regards Prasanna Kumar -----Original Message----- From: Prasanna Kumar AG [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 5:00 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: DOM to SAX InputSource Hi All, Is there any way by which I can generate SAX InputSource from a org.w3c.dom.Document object, without generating temporary XML file. I am using iText library to generate PDF from an XML source. As an XML Source I have a Document object. But the iText library only supports input in the form of  SAX InputSource.   Any suggestions?   Thanks, Prasanna Kumar Virtusa India Pvt.
