Class OptionalHandlerFactory

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable

    public class OptionalHandlerFactory
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements java.io.Serializable
    Helper class used for isolating details of handling optional+external types (javax.xml classes) from standard factories that offer them.

    Note that 2.7 changed handling to slightly less dynamic, to avoid having to traverse class hierarchy, which turned to be a performance issue in certain cases. Since DOM classes are assumed to exist on all Java 1.6 environments (yes, even on Android/GAE), this part could be simplified by slightly less dynamic lookups.

    Also with 2.7 we are supporting JDK 1.7/Java 7 type(s).
