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 < 5</b> <c a2='two'>blah</c> </a> </root>Notes:
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'.

StreamingMarkupBuilder
() |
Invoked by calling mkp.comment
Invoked by calling mkp.xmlDeclaration
Invoked by calling mkp.yield
. Used to render text to the
output stream. Any XML reserved characters will be escaped to ensure
well-formedness.
Invoked by calling mkp.pi
Invoked by calling mkp.yieldUnescaped
. Used to render
literal text or markup to the output stream. No escaping is done on the
output.
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() )
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.
