```
public static final boolean DEFAULT_PRODUCE_PARTIAL_OUTPUT_WHILE_PROCESSING
```

- Method Detail
  - getContentType
```
public String getContentType()
```
    Returns the content type that will used for this view.
    
    Content type will be computed this way:
    
    If a value is specified calling setContentType(String) on this object, that value will be used.
    
    If a value is specified at the view resolver by calling ThymeleafViewResolver.setContentType(String), that one will be used.
    
    If none of the above is true, the DEFAULT_CONTENT_TYPE constant with value "text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1" will be used.
    Specified by:
    
    getContentType in interface org.springframework.web.servlet.View
    
    Returns:
    
    the content type
    
    See Also:
    
    ThymeleafViewResolver.getContentType()
  - setContentType
```
public void setContentType(String contentType)
```
    Sets the content type that will used for this view.
    
    Content type will be computed this way:
    
    If a value is specified calling this method, that value will be used.
    
    If a value is specified at the view resolver by calling ThymeleafViewResolver.setContentType(String), that one will be used.
    
    If none of the above is true, the DEFAULT_CONTENT_TYPE constant with value "text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1" will be used.
    Parameters:
    
    contentType - the content type to be used.
    
    See Also:
    
    ThymeleafViewResolver.setContentType(String)
  - isContentTypeSet
```
protected boolean isContentTypeSet()
```
  - getForceContentType
```
public boolean getForceContentType()
```
    Returns whether the configured content type should be forced instead of attempting a smart content type application based on template name.
    
    When forced, the configured content type (setForceContentType(boolean)) will be applied even if the template name ends in a known suffix: .html, .htm, .xhtml, .xml, .js, .json, .css, .rss, .atom, .txt.
    
    Default value is false
    .
    
    Returns:
    
    whether the content type will be forced or not.
    
    Since:
    
    3.0.6
  - setForceContentType
```
public void setForceContentType(boolean forceContentType)
```
    Sets whether the configured content type should be forced instead of attempting a smart content type application based on template name.
    
    When forced, the configured content type (setForceContentType(boolean)) will be applied even if the template name ends in a known suffix: .html, .htm, .xhtml, .xml, .js, .json, .css, .rss, .atom, .txt.
    
    Default value is false
    .
    
    Parameters:
    
    forceContentType - whether the configured template mode should be forced or not.
    
    Since:
    
    3.0.6
  - isForceContentTypeSet
```
protected boolean isForceContentTypeSet()
```
  - getCharacterEncoding
```
public String getCharacterEncoding()
```
    Returns the character encoding set to be used for rendering this view.
    
    Many times, character encoding is specified as a part of the content type using the setContentType(String) method, but this is not mandatory, and it could be that only the MIME type is specified that way, thus allowing to set the character encoding using the setCharacterEncoding(String) counterpart of this getter method.
    
    Returns:
    
    the character encoding.
  - setCharacterEncoding
```
public void setCharacterEncoding(String characterEncoding)
```
    Specifies the character encoding to be set into the response when the view is rendered.
    
    Many times, character encoding is specified as a part of the content type using the setContentType(String) method, but this is not mandatory, and it could be that only the MIME type is specified that way, thus allowing to set the character encoding using this method.
    
    Parameters:
    
    characterEncoding - the character encoding to be used (e.g. UTF-8, ISO-8859-1, etc.)
  - getProducePartialOutputWhileProcessing
```
public boolean getProducePartialOutputWhileProcessing()
```
    Returns whether Thymeleaf should start producing output –and sending it to the web server's output buffers– as soon as possible, outputting partial results while processing as they become available so that they can potentially be sent to the client (browser) before processing of the whole template has completely finished.
    
    If set to false, no fragments of template result will be sent to the web server's output buffers until Thymeleaf completely finishes processing the template and generating the corresponding output. Only once finished will output start to be written to the web server's output buffers, and therefore sent to the clients.
    
    Note that setting this to false is not recommended for most scenarios, as it can (very) significantly increase the amount of memory used per template execution. Only modify this setting if you know what you are doing. A typical scenario in which setting this to false could be of use is when an application is suffering from UI rendering issues (flickering) at the browser due to incremental rendering of very large templates.
    
    Default value is true.
    
    Returns:
    
    whether to start producing output as soon as possible while processing or not (default: true).
    
    Since:
    
    3.0.10
  - setProducePartialOutputWhileProcessing
```
public void setProducePartialOutputWhileProcessing(boolean producePartialOutputWhileProcessing)
```
    Sets whether Thymeleaf should start producing output –and sending it to the web server's output buffers– as soon as possible, outputting partial results while processing as they become available so that they can potentially be sent to the client (browser) before processing of the whole template has completely finished.
    
    If set to false, no fragments of template result will be sent to the web server's output buffers until Thymeleaf completely finishes processing the template and generating the corresponding output.
