/**
* Define an interface to serialization of XML Infoset. This interface abstracts away if serialized XML is XML 1.0
* compatible text or other formats of XML 1.0 serializations (such as binary XML for example with WBXML).
*
* PLEASE NOTE: This interface will be part of XmlPull 1.2 API. It is included as basis for discussion. It may
* change in any way.
*
* Exceptions that may be thrown are: IOException or runtime exception (more runtime exceptions can be thrown but are
* not declared and as such have no semantics defined for this interface):
*
* - IllegalArgumentException - for almost all methods to signal that argument is illegal
*
- IllegalStateException - to signal that call has good arguments but is not expected here (violation of
* contract) and for features/properties when requesting setting unimplemented feature/property
* (UnsupportedOperationException would be better but it is not in MIDP)
*
*
* NOTE: writing CDSECT, ENTITY_REF, IGNORABLE_WHITESPACE, PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION, COMMENT, and DOCDECL in some
* implementations may not be supported (for example when serializing to WBXML). In such case IllegalStateException will
* be thrown and it is recommended to use an optional feature to signal that implementation is not supporting this kind
* of output.
