Getting Marshall result into String

Question

JAXBContext context = JAXBContext                     .newInstance(CreateExemptionCertificate.class);             Marshaller m = context.createMarshaller();             m.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, Boolean.TRUE);              m.marshal(cc, System.out); 

In the code above i am getting the result to the console (I mean XML is getting printed on the console). I want to get this XML to a string. I am not getting which argument I should pass to the marshal method to get XML String in a String variable instead of printing it on the console. Anybody having any idea please share.

You can do it like this :

    CreateExemptionCertificate cc = ...;     JAXBContext context = JAXBContext.newInstance(CreateExemptionCertificate.class);     Marshaller m = context.createMarshaller();     m.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, Boolean.TRUE);      StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();     m.marshal(cc, sw);      String result = sw.toString();
