Serialization StackOverflowError

[Michael Ryan Bannon]

Hello,   Forgive me if this has been mentioned before in another thread...   I am running into a StackOverflowError when attempting to serialize a large XML document (10000+ nodes, with a height of 10000). I have the following method:    private static String serialize(Document doc) {   *****************************************   try {    // Set the output format.    OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat();    format.setIndent(5);      // Serialize the document.    Serializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(format);    ByteArrayOutputStream outStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();    serializer.setOutputByteStream(outStream);    DOMSerializer domSerializer = serializer.asDOMSerializer();    domSerializer.serialize(doc);    return outStream.toString();     } catch (IOException e) {    System.out.println(e);   }   return null;  } *****************************************   The line "domSerializer.serialize(doc);" is causing a StackOverflowError. Is there a solution to this?   Any help is greatly appreciated.   Thanks,   Ryan
