SVG Library for Java

Question

Is there a Java library that provides a component way to create SVG documents?

I don't need to display SVG, all I want to do is build the SVG tree in a programmatic and safe way.

Answer 1

Batik should do everything perfectly: it’s not only for rendering, you can create and manipulate SVG with it.

Answer 2

Here is an example of using Batik to download and manage the SVG DOM:
