/**
|
16 |
|
|
* This interface represents an output destination for data.
|
17 |
|
|
* <p> This interface allows an application to encapsulate information about
|
18 |
|
|
* an output destination in a single object, which may include a URI, a byte
|
19 |
|
|
* stream (possibly with a specified encoding), a base URI, and/or a
|
20 |
|
|
* character stream.
|
21 |
|
|
* <p> The exact definitions of a byte stream and a character stream are
|
22 |
|
|
* binding dependent.
|
23 |
|
|
* <p> The application is expected to provide objects that implement this
|
24 |
|
|
* interface whenever such objects are needed. The application can either
|
25 |
|
|
* provide its own objects that implement this interface, or it can use the
|
26 |
|
|
* generic factory method <code>DOMImplementationLS.createLSOutput()</code>
|
27 |
|
|
* to create objects that implement this interface.
|
28 |
|
|
* <p> The <code>LSSerializer</code> will use the <code>LSOutput</code> object
|
29 |
|
|
* to determine where to serialize the output to. The
|
30 |
|
|
* <code>LSSerializer</code> will look at the different outputs specified in
|
31 |
|
|
* the <code>LSOutput</code> in the following order to know which one to
|
32 |
|
|
* output to, the first one that is not null and not an empty string will be
|
33 |
|
|
* used:
|
34 |
|
|
* <ol>
|
35 |
|
|
* <li> <code>LSOutput.characterStream</code>
|
36 |
|
|
* </li>
|
37 |
|
|
* <li>
|
38 |
|
|
* <code>LSOutput.byteStream</code>
|
39 |
|
|
* </li>
|
40 |
|
|
* <li> <code>LSOutput.systemId</code>
|
41 |
|
|
* </li>
|
42 |
|
|
* </ol>
|
43 |
|
|
* <p> <code>LSOutput</code> objects belong to the application. The DOM
|
44 |
|
|
* implementation will never modify them (though it may make copies and
|
45 |
|
|
* modify the copies, if necessary).
|
46 |
|
|
* <p>See also the <a href='http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-DOM-Level-3-LS-20040407'>Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Load
