I am marshalling (serializing) JAXB beans to output stream. How can I add DOCTYPE declaration and xml processing instructions to ouput?
I am doing currently marshalling like this:
JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance("com.example.package");
Marshaller marshaller = jaxbContext.createMarshaller();
marshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, Boolean.TRUE);
SchemaFactory schemaFactory = SchemaFactory.newInstance("http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
Schema schema = schemaFactory.newSchema(schemaSource);
marshaller.setSchema(schema);
marshaller.marshal(object, output);
I'd like have output that looks something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE Something SYSTEM "some.dtd">
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="some.xsl"?>
JAXB bean are generated code so I don't want to change them.
There are some hacks and undocumented tricks (see Making JAXB generate an XML processing instruction) to add the xml processing instructions and doctype. But what is the preferred or right way to do this?
