XMLEncoder
The  
XMLEncoder class is a complementary alternative to
 the ObjectOutputStream and can used to generate
 a textual representation of a JavaBean in the same
 way that the ObjectOutputStream can
 be used to create binary representation of Serializable
 objects. | 
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description | 
|---|---|
protected void | 
DefaultPersistenceDelegate.initialize(Class<?> type,
          Object oldInstance,
          Object newInstance,
          Encoder out)
This default implementation of the  
initialize method assumes
 all state held in objects of this type is exposed via the
 matching pairs of "setter" and "getter" methods in the order
 they are returned by the Introspector. | 
protected void | 
PersistenceDelegate.initialize(Class<?> type,
          Object oldInstance,
          Object newInstance,
          Encoder out)
Produce a series of statements with side effects on  
newInstance
 so that the new instance becomes equivalent to oldInstance. | 
protected Expression | 
DefaultPersistenceDelegate.instantiate(Object oldInstance,
           Encoder out)
This default implementation of the  
instantiate method returns
 an expression containing the predefined method name "new" which denotes a
 call to a constructor with the arguments as specified in
 the DefaultPersistenceDelegate's constructor. | 
protected abstract Expression | 
PersistenceDelegate.instantiate(Object oldInstance,
           Encoder out)
Returns an expression whose value is  
oldInstance. | 
void | 
PersistenceDelegate.writeObject(Object oldInstance,
           Encoder out)
The  
writeObject is a single entry point to the persistence
 and is used by a Encoder in the traditional
 mode of delegation. |
