Getting XML Header in XMLBeans

Hi All,
I'm using XMLBeans for generating xml files. But it doesn't seem to be
printing the XML Header line at the top - <?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>. Can someone tell me how to get XMLBeans to add this
to the XML?

You can't - or rather, you should not. I guess that XMLBeans uses
Reader and Writer (i.e. character streams) to read from and write to.
It does not know the encoding of the stream. So you have to write it
yourself.

But I'm setting the encoding type through the XMLOptions object as
follows:

XmlOptions opts = new XmlOptions();
opts.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
//xmlDoc.documentProperties().setEncoding("UTF-8");
xmlDoc.save(writer, opts);

Any idea if XMLBeans will use this value for adding the header?
