/**
 * <p>
 * <code>XMLWriter</code> takes a DOM4J tree and formats it to a stream as
 * XML. It can also take SAX events too so can be used by SAX clients as this
 * object implements the {@link org.xml.sax.ContentHandler}and {@link
 * LexicalHandler} interfaces. as well. This formatter performs typical document
 * formatting. The XML declaration and processing instructions are always on
 * their own lines. An {@link OutputFormat}object can be used to define how
 * whitespace is handled when printing and allows various configuration options,
 * such as to allow suppression of the XML declaration, the encoding declaration
 * or whether empty documents are collapsed.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * There are <code>write(...)</code> methods to print any of the standard
 * DOM4J classes, including <code>Document</code> and <code>Element</code>,
 * to either a <code>Writer</code> or an <code>OutputStream</code>.
 * Warning: using your own <code>Writer</code> may cause the writer's
 * preferred character encoding to be ignored. If you use encodings other than
 * UTF8, we recommend using the method that takes an OutputStream instead.
