* </blockquote>
*
* <p>
* Marshalling to a java.io.Writer:
* <blockquote>
* <pre>
* m.marshal( element, new PrintWriter( System.out ) );
* </pre>
* </blockquote>
*

* <a name="elementMarshalling"></a>
* <b>Marshalling content tree rooted by a JAXB element</b><br>
* <blockquote>
* The first parameter of the overloaded
* <tt>Marshaller.marshal(java.lang.Object, ...)</tt> methods must be a
* JAXB element as computed by
* {@link JAXBIntrospector#isElement(java.lang.Object)};
* otherwise, a <tt>Marshaller.marshal</tt> method must throw a
* {@link MarshalException}. There exist two mechanisms
* to enable marshalling an instance that is not a JAXB element.
* One method is to wrap the instance as a value of a {@link JAXBElement},
* and pass the wrapper element as the first parameter to
* a <tt>Marshaller.marshal</tt> method. For java to schema binding, it
* is also possible to simply annotate the instance's class with
* @{@link XmlRootElement}.
* </blockquote>
*
* <p>
* <b>Encoding</b><br>
* <blockquote>
* By default, the Marshaller will use UTF-8 encoding when generating XML data
* to a <tt>java.io.OutputStream</tt>, or a <tt>java.io.Writer</tt>. Use the
* {@link #setProperty(String,Object) setProperty} API to change the output
* encoding used during these marshal operations. Client applications are
* expected to supply a valid character encoding name as defined in the
* <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006#charencoding">W3C XML 1.0
* Recommendation</a> and supported by your
* <a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/lang/package-summary.html#charenc">
* Java Platform</a>.
* </blockquote>
*
* <p>
* <b>Validation and Well-Formedness</b><br>
* <blockquote>
* <p>
* Client applications are not required to validate the Java content tree prior
* to calling any of the marshal API's. Furthermore, there is no requirement
* that the Java content tree be valid with respect to its original schema in
* order to marshal it back into XML data. Different JAXB Providers will
* support marshalling invalid Java content trees at varying levels, however
* all JAXB Providers must be able to marshal a valid content tree back to
* XML data. A JAXB Provider must throw a <tt>MarshalException</tt> when it
* is unable to complete the marshal operation due to invalid content. Some
* JAXB Providers will fully allow marshalling invalid content, others will fail
* on the first validation error.
* <p>
* Even when schema validation is not explictly enabled for the marshal operation,
* it is possible that certain types of validation events will be detected
* during the operation. Validation events will be reported to the registered
* event handler. If the client application has not registered an event handler
* prior to invoking one of the marshal API's, then events will be delivered to
* a default event handler which will terminate the marshal operation after
* encountering the first error or fatal error. Note that for JAXB 2.0 and
* later versions, {@link javax.xml.bind.helpers.DefaultValidationEventHandler} is
* no longer used.
*
* </blockquote>
*
* <p>
* <a name="supportedProps"></a>
* <b>Supported Properties</b><br>
* <blockquote>
* <p>
* All JAXB Providers are required to support the following set of properties.
* Some providers may support additional properties.
* <dl>
* <dt><tt>jaxb.encoding</tt> - value must be a java.lang.String</dd>
* <dd>The output encoding to use when marshalling the XML data. The
* Marshaller will use "UTF-8" by default if this property is not
* specified.</dd>
* <dt><tt>jaxb.formatted.output</tt> - value must be a java.lang.Boolean</dd>
* <dd>This property controls whether or not the Marshaller will format
* the resulting XML data with line breaks and indentation. A
* true value for this property indicates human readable indented
* xml data, while a false value indicates unformatted xml data.
* The Marshaller will default to false (unformatted) if this
* property is not specified.</dd>
* <dt><tt>jaxb.schemaLocation</tt> - value must be a java.lang.String</dd>
* <dd>This property allows the client application to specify an
* xsi:schemaLocation attribute in the generated XML data. The format of
* the schemaLocation attribute value is discussed in an easy to
* understand, non-normative form in
* <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-0/#schemaLocation">Section 5.6
* of the W3C XML Schema Part 0: Primer</a> and specified in
* <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#Instance_Document_Constructions">
* Section 2.6 of the W3C XML Schema Part 1: Structures</a>.</dd>
* <dt><tt>jaxb.noNamespaceSchemaLocation</tt> - value must be a java.lang.String</dd>
* <dd>This property allows the client application to specify an
* xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attribute in the generated XML
* data. The format of the schemaLocation attribute value is discussed in
* an easy to understand, non-normative form in
* <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-0/#schemaLocation">Section 5.6

* <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#Instance_Document_Constructions">
* Section 2.6 of the W3C XML Schema Part 1: Structures</a>.</dd>
* <dt><tt>jaxb.fragment</tt> - value must be a java.lang.Boolean</dd>
* <dd>This property determines whether or not document level events will be
* generated by the Marshaller. If the property is not specified, the
* default is <tt>false</tt>. This property has different implications depending
* on which marshal api you are using - when this property is set to true:<br>
* <ul>
* <li>{@link #marshal(Object,org.xml.sax.ContentHandler) marshal(Object,ContentHandler)} - the Marshaller won't
* invoke {@link org.xml.sax.ContentHandler#startDocument()} and
* {@link org.xml.sax.ContentHandler#endDocument()}.</li>
* <li>{@link #marshal(Object,org.w3c.dom.Node) marshal(Object,Node)} - the property has no effect on this
* API.</li>
* <li>{@link #marshal(Object,java.io.OutputStream) marshal(Object,OutputStream)} - the Marshaller won't
* generate an xml declaration.</li>
* <li>{@link #marshal(Object,java.io.Writer) marshal(Object,Writer)} - the Marshaller won't
* generate an xml declaration.</li>
* <li>{@link #marshal(Object,javax.xml.transform.Result) marshal(Object,Result)} - depends on the kind of
* Result object, see semantics for Node, ContentHandler, and Stream APIs</li>
* <li>{@link #marshal(Object,javax.xml.stream.XMLEventWriter) marshal(Object,XMLEventWriter)} - the
* Marshaller will not generate {@link javax.xml.stream.events.XMLEvent#START_DOCUMENT} and
* {@link javax.xml.stream.events.XMLEvent#END_DOCUMENT} events.</li>
* <li>{@link #marshal(Object,javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamWriter) marshal(Object,XMLStreamWriter)} - the
* Marshaller will not generate {@link javax.xml.stream.events.XMLEvent#START_DOCUMENT} and
* {@link javax.xml.stream.events.XMLEvent#END_DOCUMENT} events.</li>
* </ul>
* </dd>
* </dl>
* </blockquote>
*
* <p>
* <a name="marshalEventCallback"></a>
* <b>Marshal Event Callbacks</b><br>
* <blockquote>
* "The {@link Marshaller} provides two styles of callback mechanisms
* that allow application specific processing during key points in the
* unmarshalling process. In 'class defined' event callbacks, application
* specific code placed in JAXB mapped classes is triggered during
* marshalling. 'External listeners' allow for centralized processing
* of marshal events in one callback method rather than by type event callbacks.
*
* <p>
* Class defined event callback methods allow any JAXB mapped class to specify
* its own specific callback methods by defining methods with the following method signatures:
* <blockquote>
* <pre>
* // Invoked by Marshaller after it has created an instance of this object.
* boolean beforeMarshal(Marshaller);
*
* // Invoked by Marshaller after it has marshalled all properties of this object.
* void afterMmarshal(Marshaller);
* </pre>
* </blockquote>
* The class defined event callback methods should be used when the callback method requires
* access to non-public methods and/or fields of the class.
* <p>
* The external listener callback mechanism enables the registration of a {@link Listener}
* instance with a {@link Marshaller#setListener(Listener)}. The external listener receives all callback events,
* allowing for more centralized processing than per class defined callback methods.
* <p>
* The 'class defined' and external listener event callback methods are independent of each other,
* both can be called for one event. The invocation ordering when both listener callback methods exist is
* defined in {@link Listener#beforeMarshal(Object)} and {@link Listener#afterMarshal(Object)}.
* <p>
* An event callback method throwing an exception terminates the current marshal process.
