SAX2 Filter Interfaces
This appendix describes the SAX2 filter interfaces. A pipeline consists of a collection of filters that are driven by the SAX2 API.
If you need to extend a filter or implement a new one, you must be familiar with the following SAX2 interfaces:
ContentHandler
DTDHandler
LexicalHandler
For more complete information, refer to the Javadoc for these interfaces at SAX: Simple API for XML: Overview (http://www.saxproject.org/apidoc/overviewsummary.html)
