Pcdata (Metro Web Services Runtime OSGi Bundle 3.0.1 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.output.Pcdata

All Implemented Interfaces:

CharSequence

Direct Known Subclasses:

Base64Data, IntArrayData, IntData
```
public abstract class Pcdata
extends Object
implements CharSequence
```
Text data in XML.
This class is used inside the marshaller/unmarshaller to send/receive text data.
On top of CharSequence, this class has an ability to write itself to the XmlOutput. This allows the implementation to choose the most efficient way possible when writing to XML (for example, it can skip the escaping of buffer copying.) TODO: visitor pattern support?

  - writeTo
```
public abstract void writeTo(UTF8XmlOutput output)
                      throws IOException
```
    Writes itself to UTF8XmlOutput.
    This is the most performance critical path for the marshaller, so it warrants its own method.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - writeTo
```
public void writeTo(char[] buf,
                    int start)
```
    Writes itself to the character array.
    This method is used by most other XmlOutput. The default implementation involves in one extra char[] copying.
    The caller must provide a big enough buffer that can hold enough characters returned by the CharSequence.length() method.
  - toString
```
public abstract String toString()
```
    Specified by:
    
    toString in interface CharSequence
    
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Object
