DocumentHandler
interface. It has been replaced by the SAX2DefaultHandler
class.Default base class for handlers.
This module, both source code and documentation, is in the Public Domain, and comes withNO WARRANTY.
This class implements the default behaviour for four SAX1 interfaces: EntityResolver, DTDHandler, DocumentHandler, and ErrorHandler. It is now obsolete, but is included in SAX2 to support legacy SAX1 applications. SAX2 applications should use theDefaultHandler
class instead.
Application writers can extend this class when they need to implement only part of an interface; parser writers can instantiate this class to provide default handlers when the application has not supplied its own.
Note that the use of this class is optional.

publicHandlerBase()
publicInputSourceresolveEntity(java.lang.String publicId, java.lang.String systemId) throwsSAXException
Always return null, so that the parser will use the system identifier provided in the XML document. This method implements the SAX default behaviour: application writers can override it in a subclass to do special translations such as catalog lookups or URI redirection.
resolveEntity
in interfaceEntityResolver
publicId
- The public identifer, or null if none is available.systemId
- The system identifier provided in the XML document.SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.EntityResolver.resolveEntity(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
public voidnotationDecl(java.lang.String name, java.lang.String publicId, java.lang.String systemId)
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass if they wish to keep track of the notations declared in a document.
notationDecl
in interfaceDTDHandler
name
- The notation name.publicId
- The notation public identifier, or null if not available.systemId
- The notation system identifier.DTDHandler.notationDecl(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
public voidunparsedEntityDecl(java.lang.String name, java.lang.String publicId, java.lang.String systemId, java.lang.String notationName)
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass to keep track of the unparsed entities declared in a document.
unparsedEntityDecl
in interfaceDTDHandler
name
- The entity name.publicId
- The entity public identifier, or null if not available.systemId
- The entity system identifier.notationName
- The name of the associated notation.DTDHandler.unparsedEntityDecl(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
public voidsetDocumentLocator(Locator locator)
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass if they wish to store the locator for use with other document events.
setDocumentLocator
in interfaceDocumentHandler
locator
- A locator for all SAX document events.DocumentHandler.setDocumentLocator(org.xml.sax.Locator)
,Locator
public voidstartDocument() throwsSAXException
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass to take specific actions at the beginning of a document (such as allocating the root node of a tree or creating an output file).
startDocument
in interfaceDocumentHandler
SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.DocumentHandler.startDocument()
public voidendDocument() throwsSAXException
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass to take specific actions at the beginning of a document (such as finalising a tree or closing an output file).
endDocument
in interfaceDocumentHandler
SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.DocumentHandler.endDocument()
public voidstartElement(java.lang.String name,AttributeList attributes) throwsSAXException
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass to take specific actions at the start of each element (such as allocating a new tree node or writing output to a file).
startElement
in interfaceDocumentHandler
name
- The element type name.attributes
- The specified or defaulted attributes.SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.DocumentHandler.startElement(java.lang.String, org.xml.sax.AttributeList)
public voidendElement(java.lang.String name) throwsSAXException
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass to take specific actions at the end of each element (such as finalising a tree node or writing output to a file).
endElement
in interfaceDocumentHandler
name
- The element type name.attributes
- The specified or defaulted attributes.SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.DocumentHandler.endElement(java.lang.String)
public voidcharacters(char[] ch, int start, int length) throwsSAXException
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method to take specific actions for each chunk of character data (such as adding the data to a node or buffer, or printing it to a file).
characters
in interfaceDocumentHandler
ch
- The characters.start
- The start position in the character array.length
- The number of characters to use from the character array.SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.DocumentHandler.characters(char[], int, int)
public voidignorableWhitespace(char[] ch, int start, int length) throwsSAXException
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method to take specific actions for each chunk of ignorable whitespace (such as adding data to a node or buffer, or printing it to a file).
ignorableWhitespace
in interfaceDocumentHandler
ch
- The whitespace characters.start
- The start position in the character array.length
- The number of characters to use from the character array.SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.DocumentHandler.ignorableWhitespace(char[], int, int)
public voidprocessingInstruction(java.lang.String target, java.lang.String data) throwsSAXException
By default, do nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass to take specific actions for each processing instruction, such as setting status variables or invoking other methods.

- The processing instruction data, or null if none is supplied.SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.DocumentHandler.processingInstruction(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
public voidwarning(SAXParseException e) throwsSAXException
The default implementation does nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass to take specific actions for each warning, such as inserting the message in a log file or printing it to the console.
warning
in interfaceErrorHandler
e
- The warning information encoded as an exception.SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.ErrorHandler.warning(org.xml.sax.SAXParseException)

public voiderror(SAXParseException e) throwsSAXException
The default implementation does nothing. Application writers may override this method in a subclass to take specific actions for each error, such as inserting the message in a log file or printing it to the console.

in interfaceErrorHandler
e
- The warning information encoded as an exception.SAXException
- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.ErrorHandler.warning(org.xml.sax.SAXParseException)
,SAXParseException
public voidfatalError(SAXParseException e) throwsSAXException
The default implementation throws a SAXParseException. Application writers may override this method in a subclass if they need to take specific actions for each fatal error (such as collecting all of the errors into a single report): in any case, the application must stop all regular processing when this method is invoked, since the document is no longer reliable, and the parser may no longer report parsing events.

- Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.ErrorHandler.fatalError(org.xml.sax.SAXParseException)
