Question

I want to format a XML document during unmarshal with JAXB.
Unmarshal looks like:

Unmarshaller u = createAndsetUpUnmarshaller(enableValidation, evtHandler, clazz);
return u.unmarshal(new ByteArrayInputStream(stringSource.getBytes()));

While marshaling one can format the code via:

marshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, Boolean.TRUE);

But this isn´t possible for the unmarchal process… Any idea how I can format the XML string with JAXB during (or after) unmarshal process?

BTW: I read some posts here about pretty print, but I want to do it with JAXB!

Answer 1

it is logically senseless to format the xml code while unmarshalling it?
