      • newFactory

        public static XMLInputFactory newFactory()
                                          throws FactoryConfigurationError
        Create a new instance of the factory.

        This static method creates a new factory instance. This method uses the following ordered lookup procedure to determine the XMLInputFactory implementation class to load:

        • Use the javax.xml.stream.XMLInputFactory system property.
        • Use the properties file "lib/stax.properties" in the JRE directory. This configuration file is in standard java.util.Properties format and contains the fully qualified name of the implementation class with the key being the system property defined above.
        • Use the service-provider loading facilities, defined by the ServiceLoader class, to attempt to locate and load an implementation of the service using the default loading mechanism: the service-provider loading facility will use the current thread's context class loader to attempt to load the service. If the context class loader is null, the system class loader will be used.
        • Otherwise, the system-default implementation is returned.

        Once an application has obtained a reference to a XMLInputFactory it can use the factory to configure and obtain stream instances.

        Note that this is a new method that replaces the deprecated newInstance() method. No changes in behavior are defined by this replacement method relative to the deprecated method.

        Throws:
        FactoryConfigurationError - in case of service configuration error or if the implementation is not available or cannot be instantiated.
      • newInstance

        public static XMLInputFactory newInstance(String factoryId,
                                                  ClassLoader classLoader)
                                           throws FactoryConfigurationError
        Deprecated. This method has been deprecated to maintain API consistency. All newInstance methods have been replaced with corresponding newFactory methods. The replacement newFactory(java.lang.String, java.lang.ClassLoader) method defines no changes in behavior.
        Create a new instance of the factory
        Parameters:
        factoryId - Name of the factory to find, same as a property name
        classLoader - classLoader to use
        Returns:
        the factory implementation
        Throws:
        FactoryConfigurationError - if an instance of this factory cannot be loaded
      • newFactory

        public static XMLInputFactory newFactory(String factoryId,
                                                 ClassLoader classLoader)
                                          throws FactoryConfigurationError
        Create a new instance of the factory. If the classLoader argument is null, then the ContextClassLoader is used.

        This method uses the following ordered lookup procedure to determine the XMLInputFactory implementation class to load:

        • Use the value of the system property identified by factoryId.
        • Use the properties file "lib/stax.properties" in the JRE directory. This configuration file is in standard java.util.Properties format and contains the fully qualified name of the implementation class with the key being the given factoryId.
        • If factoryId is "javax.xml.stream.XMLInputFactory", use the service-provider loading facilities, defined by the ServiceLoader class, to attempt to locate and load an implementation of the service using the specified ClassLoader. If classLoader is null, the default loading mechanism will apply: That is, the service-provider loading facility will use the current thread's context class loader to attempt to load the service. If the context class loader is null, the system class loader will be used.
        • Otherwise, throws a FactoryConfigurationError.

        Note that this is a new method that replaces the deprecated newInstance(String factoryId, ClassLoader classLoader) method. No changes in behavior are defined by this replacement method relative to the deprecated method.

        API Note:
        The parameter factoryId defined here is inconsistent with that of other JAXP factories where the first parameter is fully qualified factory class name that provides implementation of the factory.
        Parameters:
        factoryId - Name of the factory to find, same as a property name
        classLoader - classLoader to use
        Returns:
        the factory implementation
        Throws:
        FactoryConfigurationError - in case of service configuration error or if the implementation is not available or cannot be instantiated.
        FactoryConfigurationError - if an instance of this factory cannot be loaded
