Xmlparserv2 output file question

Question

I have used the Class Generator to generate XML element classes. The following code sucessfully creates an XML document. However, the output is going to the screen.
How can I capture this to a file?
Thanks

Hi Daniel,
The output could be captured in a file instead of screen by specifying a FileOutputStream and sending that to the print function.
In your code, you are sending System.out as a parameter to the print statement:
APIMessage.print(System.out);
Instead, if you say:
String outputFile = "output_file";
FileOutputStream out =
new FileOutputStream(outputFile);
APIMessage.print(out);
the output will go to the specified file which in this case is "output_file";
Thanks
