Core Properties

Properties provide a way to deal with objects used in the parsing process, particularly when dealing with handlers such as LexicalHandler and DeclHandler that are not in the core set of SAX 2.0 handlers (EntityResolver, DTDHandler, ContentHandler, and ErrorHandler). Any property can be read-only or read/write; features also may be modifiable only when parsing is occurring, or only when parsing is not occurring.

Lexical Handler

This property allows the setting and retrieval of a LexicalHandler implementation to be used for handling of comments and DTD references within an XML document.

URI: http://xml.org/sax/properties/lexical-handler
Datatype: org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler
Access: Read/write when parsing, read/write when not parsing

Declaration Handler

This property allows the setting and retrieval of a DeclHandler implementation to be used for handling of constraints within a DTD.

URI: http://xml.org/sax/properties/declaration-handler
Datatype: org.xml.sax.ext.DeclHandler
Access: Read/write when parsing, read/write when not parsing

DOM Node

When parsing is occurring, this property retrieves the current DOM node (if a DOM iterator is being used). When parsing is not occurring, it retrieves the root DOM node. Most of the parsers I used in testing for this book did not support this property except in very special cases; I wouldn’t rely on it providing useful information in the general case.

URI: http://xml.org/sax/properties/dom-node
Datatype: org.w3c.dom.Node

QuotationMarkI wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.
