Interface DOMASWriter

All Superinterfaces:
  org.w3c.dom.ls.DOMWriter

Deprecated. A Abstract Schema serialization interface.

DOMASWriters provides an API for serializing Abstract Schemas out in the form of a source Abstract Schema. The Abstract Schema is written to an output stream, the type of which depends on the specific language bindings in use.

DOMASWriter is a generic Abstract Schema serialization interface. It can be applied to both an internal Abstract Schema and/or an external Abstract Schema. DOMASWriter is applied to serialize a single Abstract Schema. Serializing a document with an active Internal Abstract Schema will serialize this internal Abstract Schema with the document as it is part of the Document (see `DOMWriter`).

See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Abstract Schemas and Load and Save Specification.

  Write out the specified Abstract Schema to the specified destination. Does it write a DTD or an XML Schema (or something else)? Is it possible to use this method to convert a DTD to an XML Schema?
  Parameters:
    `destination` - The destination for the data to be written.
    `model` - The Abstract Schema to serialize.
  Throws:
