Class XMLReaderAdapter

    java.lang.Object
      |
      +--org.xml.sax.helpers.XMLReaderAdapter

All Implemented Interfaces:
  ContentHandler, Parser

public class XMLReaderAdapter
extends java.lang.Object
implements Parser, ContentHandler

Adapt a SAX2 XMLReader as a SAX1 Parser.

This class wraps a SAX2 `XMLReader` and makes it act as a SAX1 `Parser`. The XMLReader must support a true value for the http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes property or parsing will fail with a `SAXException`; if the XMLReader supports a false value for the http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces property, that will also be used to improve efficiency.

Since:
  SAX 2.0
Version:
  2.0r2pre3

  David Megginson

Constructor Detail

### XMLReaderAdapter

    public XMLReaderAdapter()
                     throws SAXException

  Create a new adapter.

  Use the "org.xml.sax.driver" property to locate the SAX2 driver to embed.

  Throws:
    `SAXException` - If the embedded driver cannot be instantiated or if the org.xml.sax.driver property is not specified.

### XMLReaderAdapter

    public XMLReaderAdapter(XMLReader xmlReader)

  Create a new adapter.

  Create a new adapter, wrapped around a SAX2 XMLReader. The adapter will make the XMLReader act like a SAX1 Parser.

  Parameters:
    `xmlReader` - The SAX2 XMLReader to wrap.
  Throws:
    `java.lang.NullPointerException` - If the argument is null.
