Class MarshallingSource

    java.lang.Object
      javax.xml.transform.sax.SAXSource
          org.springframework.oxm.support.MarshallingSource

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Source

    public class MarshallingSource

extends SAXSource

`Source` implementation that uses a `Marshaller`.Can be constructed with a `Marshaller` and an object to be marshalled.

Even though `MarshallingSource` extends from `SAXSource`, calling the methods of `SAXSource` is not supported. In general, the only supported operation on this class is to use the `XMLReader` obtained via `SAXSource.getXMLReader()` to parse the input source obtained via `SAXSource.getInputSource()`. Calling `setXMLReader(XMLReader)` or `setInputSource(InputSource)` will result in `UnsupportedOperationException`s.
