Class DocumentSerializationState

java.lang.Object
  org.kuali.rice.krad.util.documentserializer.DocumentSerializationState

public class DocumentSerializationState
extends Object

This object keeps track of most of the open tags while a document is serialized. Note that instances of this class may not necessarily hold all open tags of a document while it is being serialized. For example, tags enclosing list elements and map entries are not contained within here. See DocumentSerializerServiceImpl to determine when this object's state is modified. This class's manipulators behave much like a stack, but it has random access characteristics like an array.
