      • getMimeType

        public java.lang.String getMimeType()

      • isOutputFormatMixingAllowed

        public boolean isOutputFormatMixingAllowed()
        Description copied from class: OutputFormat
        Tells if this output format allows inserting TemplateMarkupOutputModel-s of another output formats into it. If true, the foreign TemplateMarkupOutputModel will be inserted into the output as is (like if the surrounding output format was the same). This is usually a bad idea to allow, as such an event could indicate application bugs. If this method returns false (recommended), then FreeMarker will try to assimilate the inserted value by converting its format to this format, which will currently (2.3.24) cause exception, unless the inserted value is made by escaping plain text and the target format is non-escaping, in which case format conversion is trivially possible. (It's not impossible that conversions will be extended beyond this, if there will be demand for that.)

        true value is used by UndefinedOutputFormat.
