public abstract Class XMLOutputFactory2

Property that can be set if a custom output escaping for attribute value content is needed. The value set needs to be of type EscapingWriterFactory. When set, the factory will be used to create a per-writer instance used to escape all attribute values written, both via explicit XMLStreamWriter#writeAttribute methods, and via copy methods (XMLStreamWriter2#copyEventFromReader).

Whether stream writer is to close the underlying output destination (output stream, reader) when stream writer is closed. Basic StAX2 specification mandates this feature to be set to false by default (for destinations that are passed by the application and for which it has access to).

Whether stream writers are allowed to automatically output empty elements, when a start element is immediately followed by matching end element. If true, will output empty elements; if false, will always create separate end element (unless a specific method that produces empty elements is called).

Default value for implementations should be 'true'; both values should be recognized, and 'false' must be honored. However, 'true' value is only a suggestion, and need not be implemented (since there is the explicit 'writeEmptyElement()' method).

Prefix to use for automatically created namespace prefixes, when namespace support is enabled, the writer is in "repairing" mode, and a new prefix name is needed. The value is a String, and needs to be a valid namespace prefix in itself, as defined by the namespace specification. Will be prepended by a trailing part (often a sequence number), in order to make it unique to be usable as a temporary non-colliding prefix.

Property that can be set if a custom output escaping for textual content is needed. The value set needs to be of type EscapingWriterFactory. When set, the factory will be used to create a per-writer instance used to escape all textual content written, both via explicit XMLStreamWriter#writeCharacters methods, and via copy methods (XMLStreamWriter2#copyEventFromReader).

Method call to make writer be as robust as possible, that is, to make it both check AND fix problems if it can.

Like configureForXmlConformance, this configuration adds some overhead to output process.

None of currently defined standard properties should be affected, but implementations are likely to enable/disable custom properties related to validation.

Method call to make writer optimize its operation for speed. This generally disably additional checks (if any) writer does, and is likely to disable many things that configureForXmlConformance (and configureForRobustness) enables.

None of currently defined standard properties should be affected.

Method call to make writer be as strict with output as possible, ie maximize validation it does to try to catch any well-formedness or validity problems.

This configuration does add some overhead to output process, since it enables content checks that are overhead.

None of currently defined standard properties should be affected, but implementations are likely to enable/disable custom properties related to validation.
