Writes an XML document to the given URI.

Parameters:

document - XML document

uri - URI to write to (must be a directory, but is not checked!)

Throws:

SerializationException - thrown in case the serialization fails

write

public static void write(org.w3c.dom.Document document,
                         java.io.OutputStream stream)
                  throws SerializationException

Writes an XML algorithm document to an output stream.

Parameters:

document - document to write

stream - output stream to write to

Throws:

SerializationException - thrown in case the serialization fails

write

public static void write(OperatorDescriptor descriptor,
                         java.io.OutputStream stream)
                  throws SerializationException

Writes an operator descriptor to an output stream.

Parameters:

descriptor - descriptor to be written

stream - output stream to write to

Throws:

SerializationException - thrown in case the XML document could not be created

write
