Carl,
the classes you refer to, org.apache.xml.serialize.XMLSerializer and
org.apache.xml.serialize.OutputFormat are both from the Xerces project, not
the Xalan project.
However you are asking a question about XSLT and presumably Xalan. Xalan
has its own serializer. You would have to work at setting the appropriate
properties in order to use a different serializer, so I presume that when
using Xalan you are using the serializer packaged with Xalan.
On the javax.xml.transform.Transformer you will find the method
setOutputProperty(String key, String value). This method is used to
over-ride values of parameters found on the xsl:output element in the
stylesheet that control serialization. Besides the standard values,
"method", "version", "encoding" ... Xalan provides some extension or
non-standard xsl:output properties and one of those, "line-separator" is
the one you are interested in.
See the page
http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/apidocs/org/apache/xalan/transformer
/TransformerImpl.html
and look for "line-separator".
Note that the API is a standard JAXP API, but the String values passed for
the key are not standard.

We have some old code that uses XMLSerializer and OutputFormat, which
provides the method setLineSeparator(String arg0). The code has some
problems, and I'm trying to replace it with code built on
javax.xml.transform.Transformer.
Unfortunately, I can't see any way to control the line separator. The
archives contain a thread from 2001, which is not encouraging. I'm hopeful
that there's been a relevant update. Any suggestions?
