Writer to InputStream or source

[Adam Teg]

I have the xml stored in Writer object using VELOCITY. How can I convert this to an InputStream or InputSource to pass it to Document builder parse method for schema validation. Is there a better way?

Thanks

I can not write the file out to disk because of risk.

What do you mean by "XML stored in a Writer object"? A Writer in Java, if you're talking about writers in the standard Java I/O API, is not something that you can store data into. It is a class that helps you write data to some storage such as a file.

Can you make your question more clear by providing a piece of code?

I figured it out thanks. I meant a Writer java object.
