Equivalent of .NET's System.Xml.XmlWriter - in Java?

Question

I want something proven and tested (e.g. apache commons level of maturity) not some code snippet from the first search result in Google

Or is GenerationJava not the abandonware it seems to be (the download link and the referal to the new host - osjava.org are both 404)

Answer 1

What about StAX?

Example from the link:

xtw = xof.createXMLStreamWriter(new FileWriter(fileName));
xtw.writeComment("all elements here are explicitly in the HTML namespace");
xtw.writeStartDocument("utf-8","1.0");
xtw.setPrefix("html", "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","html");
xtw.writeNamespace("html", "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","head");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","title");
xtw.writeCharacters("Frobnostication");
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","body");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","p");
xtw.writeCharacters("Moved to");
xtw.writeStartElement("http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40","a");
xtw.writeAttribute("href","http://frob.com");
xtw.writeCharacters("here");
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndElement();
xtw.writeEndDocument();
xtw.flush();
xtw.close();
