All Implemented Interfaces:
  org.xml.sax.Parser, PSVIProvider, org.apache.xerces.xni.XMLDocumentHandler, org.apache.xerces.xni.XMLDTDContentModelHandler, org.apache.xerces.xni.XMLDTDHandler, org.xml.sax.XMLReader

Direct Known Subclasses:
  SAXParser

public abstract class AbstractSAXParser
extends AbstractXMLDocumentParser
implements PSVIProvider, org.xml.sax.Parser, org.xml.sax.XMLReader

This is the base class of all SAX parsers. It implements both the SAX1 and SAX2 parser functionality, while the actual pipeline is defined in the parser configuration.

                                   org.apache.xerces.xni.Augmentations augs)
                            throws org.apache.xerces.xni.XNIException

  This method notifies of the start of an entity. The DTD has the pseudo-name of "[dtd]" parameter entity names start with '%'; and general entity names are just the entity name.

  Note: Since the document is an entity, the handler will be notified of the start of the document entity by calling the startEntity method with the entity name "[xml]" before calling the startDocument method. When exposing entity boundaries through the SAX API, the document entity is never reported, however.

  Note: This method is not called for entity references appearing as part of attribute values.

  Overrides:
    `startGeneralEntity` in class `AbstractXMLDocumentParser`
  Parameters:
    `name` - The name of the entity.
    `identifier` - The resource identifier.
    `encoding` - The auto-detected IANA encoding name of the entity stream. This value will be null in those situations where the entity encoding is not auto-detected (e.g. internal parameter entities).
    `augs` - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations
  Throws:
    `org.apache.xerces.xni.XNIException` - Thrown by handler to signal an error.

### endGeneralEntity

    public void endGeneralEntity(java.lang.String name,
                                 org.apache.xerces.xni.Augmentations augs)
                          throws org.apache.xerces.xni.XNIException

  This method notifies the end of an entity. The DTD has the pseudo-name of "[dtd]" parameter entity names start with '%'; and general entity names are just the entity name.

  Note: Since the document is an entity, the handler will be notified of the end of the document entity by calling the endEntity method with the entity name "[xml]" after calling the endDocument method. When exposing entity boundaries through the SAX API, the document entity is never reported, however.

  Note: This method is not called for entity references appearing as part of attribute values.

  Overrides:
    `endGeneralEntity` in class `AbstractXMLDocumentParser`
  Parameters:
    `name` - The name of the entity.
    `augs` - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations

                      throws org.apache.xerces.xni.XNIException

  Parameters:
    `element` - The name of the element.
    `attributes` - The element attributes.
    `augs` - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations
  Throws:

                           org.apache.xerces.xni.Augmentations augs)

  Ignorable whitespace. For this method to be called, the document source must have some way of determining that the text containing only whitespace characters should be considered ignorable. For example, the validator can determine if a length of whitespace characters in the document are ignorable based on the element content model.
  Overrides:
    `ignorableWhitespace` in class `AbstractXMLDocumentParser`
  Parameters:
    `text` - The ignorable whitespace.
    `augs` - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations

### startParameterEntity

    public void startParameterEntity(java.lang.String name,
                                     org.apache.xerces.xni.XMLResourceIdentifier identifier,

                                     org.apache.xerces.xni.Augmentations augs)
                              throws org.apache.xerces.xni.XNIException

  This method notifies of the start of parameter entity. The DTD has the pseudo-name of "[dtd]" parameter entity names start with '%'; and general entity names are just the entity name.

  Note: Since the document is an entity, the handler will be notified of the start of the document entity by calling the startEntity method with the entity name "[xml]" before calling the startDocument method. When exposing entity boundaries through the SAX API, the document entity is never reported, however.

  Note: This method is not called for entity references appearing as part of attribute values.

  Overrides:
    `startParameterEntity` in class `AbstractXMLDocumentParser`
  Parameters:
    `name` - The name of the parameter entity.
    `identifier` - The resource identifier.
    `encoding` - The auto-detected IANA encoding name of the entity stream. This value will be null in those situations where the entity encoding is not auto-detected (e.g. internal parameter entities).
    `augs` - Additional information that may include infoset augmentations.
  Throws:
    `org.apache.xerces.xni.XNIException` - Thrown by handler to signal an error.

                            throws org.apache.xerces.xni.XNIException

  This method notifies the end of an entity. The DTD has the pseudo-name of "[dtd]" parameter entity names start with '%'; and general entity names are just the entity name.

  Note: Since the document is an entity, the handler will be notified of the end of the document entity by calling the endEntity method with the entity name "[xml]" after calling the endDocument method. When exposing entity boundaries through the SAX API, the document entity is never reported, however.

  Note: This method is not called for entity references appearing as part of attribute values.

  Specified by:
    `setDTDHandler` in interface `org.xml.sax.Parser`

  Applications may register a new or different handler in the middle of a parse, and the SAX parser must begin using the new handler immediately.

  Specified by:
    `setDocumentHandler` in interface `org.xml.sax.Parser`
