Remarks
Emits on the specified output stream an XML document representing all of the preferences contained in this node (but not its descendants). This XML document is, in effect, an offline backup of the node.
The XML document will have the following DOCTYPE declaration:
{@code
<!DOCTYPE preferences SYSTEM "http://java.sun.com/dtd/preferences.dtd">
}
The UTF-8 character encoding will be used.
This method is an exception to the general rule that the results of concurrently executing multiple methods in this class yields results equivalent to some serial execution. If the preferences at this node are modified concurrently with an invocation of this method, the exported preferences comprise a "fuzzy snapshot" of the preferences contained in the node; some of the concurrent modifications may be reflected in the exported data while others may not.
