/**
* Interface for reading an XML document using callbacks.
*
* <blockquote>
* <em>This module, both source code and documentation, is in the
* Public Domain, and comes with <strong>NO WARRANTY</strong>.</em>
* See <a href='http://www.saxproject.org'>http://www.saxproject.org</a>
* for further information.
* </blockquote>
*
* <p><strong>Note:</strong> despite its name, this interface does
* <em>not</em> extend the standard Java {@link java.io.Reader Reader}
* interface, because reading XML is a fundamentally different activity
* than reading character data.</p>
*
* <p>XMLReader is the interface that an XML parser's SAX2 driver must
* implement. This interface allows an application to set and
* query features and properties in the parser, to register
* event handlers for document processing, and to initiate
* a document parse.</p>
*
* <p>All SAX interfaces are assumed to be synchronous: the
* {@link #parse parse} methods must not return until parsing
* is complete, and readers must wait for an event-handler callback
* to return before reporting the next event.</p>
*
* <p>This interface replaces the (now deprecated) SAX 1.0 {@link
* org.xml.sax.Parser Parser} interface. The XMLReader interface
* contains two important enhancements over the old Parser
* interface (as well as some minor ones):</p>
*
* <ol>
* <li>it adds a standard way to query and set features and
* properties; and</li>
* <li>it adds Namespace support, which is required for many
* higher-level XML standards.</li>
* </ol>
*
* <p>There are adapters available to convert a SAX1 Parser to
* a SAX2 XMLReader and vice-versa.</p>
*
* @since SAX 2.0
* @author David Megginson
* @version 2.0.1 (sax2r2)
* @see org.xml.sax.XMLFilter
* @see org.xml.sax.helpers.ParserAdapter
* @see org.xml.sax.helpers.XMLReaderAdapter
