Overview

To use a SAX parser, use SAXParserFactory to generate a parser instance. Then call parsers's parse() method. The parser contains a SAXReader instance, which invokes callback methods the application must implement. The methods are defined by the ContentHandler, ErrorHandler, DTDHandler and EntityResolver interfaces.

For a working example of SAX parsing, see SAX Example below.
