Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hai,

I would like to know if there is a method by which the white space in the can be preserved while parsing an xml document. In dom parser it is possible by using the method
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
dbf.setIgnoringElementContentWhitespace(true);
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
db.parse(in);

In a similar way I would like to know wether the white space content can be preserved using a SAX parser. I am getting the sax parser to parse the xml document the foillowing way...

XMLReader reader = SAXParserFactory.newInstance().newSAXParser().getXMLReader();
reader.setContentHandler(new DbPaymentSAXConverter(listDestinations));
reader.parse(strInputFile);

Thanking you in advance

rgds,
Satish
