  Parameters:
    `cas` - The CAS to be serialized.
    `contentHandler` - The SAX content handler the data is written to.
    `encodeDoc` - If set to false, no uima.tcas.Document structure will be created, and the document text will not be serialized.

### getDocumentTypeName

    public String getDocumentTypeName()

  Gets the name of the type representing the document. This will become the name of the XML element that will hold the document text.

  Returns:
    the document type name

### setDocumentTypeName

    public void setDocumentTypeName(String aDocTypeName)

  Gets the name of the type representing the document. This will become the name of the XML element that will hold the document text. If not set, defaults to `DEFAULT_DOC_TYPE_NAME`.

  Parameters:
    `aDocTypeName` - the document type name

### getDocumentTextFeature

    public String getDocumentTextFeature()

  Gets the name of the feature holding the documeng text. This will become the value of the _content attribute on the document element.

  Returns:
    the document text feature

### setDocumentTextFeature

    public void setDocumentTextFeature(String aDocTextFeature)

  Sets the name of the feature holding the documeng text. This will become the value of the _content attribute on the document element. If not set, defaults to `DEFAULT_DOC_TEXT_FEAT`. If set to null, no _content attribute will be emitted.

  Parameters:
    `aDocTextFeature` - the document text feature

### serialize

    public static void serialize(CAS aCAS,
                                 OutputStream aStream)

                                 IOException

  Serializes an XCAS to a stream.

  Parameters:
    `aCAS` - CAS to serialize.
    `aStream` - output stream to which to write the XCAS XML document
  Throws:
    `SAXException` - if a problem occurs during XCAS serialization
    `IOException` - if an I/O failure occurs

### serialize

    public static void serialize(CAS aCAS,
                                 OutputStream aStream,

                                 IOException

  Serializes an XCAS to a stream.

  Parameters:
    `aCAS` - CAS to serialize.
    `aStream` - output stream to which to write the XCAS XML document
