This is the main interface that most SAX applications implement: if the application needs to be informed of basic parsing events, it implements this interface and registers an instance with the SAX parser using the org.xml.sax.XMLReader#setContentHandler setContentHandler method. The parser uses the instance to report basic document-related events like the start and end of elements and character data.

The order of events in this interface is very important, and mirrors the order of information in the document itself. For example, all of an element's content (character data, processing instructions, and/or subelements) will appear, in order, between the startElement event and the corresponding endElement event.

This interface is similar to the now-deprecated SAX 1.0 DocumentHandler interface, but it adds support for Namespaces and for reporting skipped entities (in non-validating XML processors).

Implementors should note that there is also a ContentHandler class in the java.net package; that means that it's probably a bad idea to do

import java.net.*;
            import org.xml.sax.*;

In fact, "import ...*" is usually a sign of sloppy programming anyway, so the user should consider this a feature rather than a bug.

Added in SAX 2.0.

Properties

Handle	Gets the JNI value of the underlying Android object. (Inherited from IJavaObject)
JniIdentityHashCode	Returns the value of `java.lang.System.identityHashCode()` for the wrapped instance. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
JniManagedPeerState	State of the managed peer. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
JniPeerMembers	Member access and invocation support. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
PeerReference	Returns a JniObjectReference of the wrapped Java object instance. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)

Methods

Characters(Char[], Int32, Int32)	Receive notification of character data.
Disposed()	Called when the instance has been disposed. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
DisposeUnlessReferenced()	If there are no outstanding references to this instance, then calls `Dispose()`; otherwise, does nothing. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
EndDocument()	Receive notification of the end of a document.
EndElement(String, String, String)	Receive notification of the end of an element.
EndPrefixMapping(String)	End the scope of a prefix-URI mapping.
Finalized()	Called when the instance has been finalized. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
IgnorableWhitespace(Char[], Int32, Int32)	Receive notification of ignorable whitespace in element content.
ProcessingInstruction(String, String)	Receive notification of a processing instruction.
SetDocumentLocator(ILocator)	Receive an object for locating the origin of SAX document events.
SetJniIdentityHashCode(Int32)	Set the value returned by `JniIdentityHashCode`. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
SetJniManagedPeerState(JniManagedPeerStates)	(Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
SetPeerReference(JniObjectReference)	Set the value returned by `PeerReference`. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)
SkippedEntity(String)	Receive notification of a skipped entity.
StartDocument()	Receive notification of the beginning of a document.
StartElement(String, String, String, IAttributes)	Receive notification of the beginning of an element.
StartPrefixMapping(String, String)	Begin the scope of a prefix-URI Namespace mapping.
UnregisterFromRuntime()	Unregister this instance so that the runtime will not return it from future Java.Interop.JniRuntime+JniValueManager.PeekValue invocations. (Inherited from IJavaPeerable)

Extension Methods

JavaCast<TResult>(IJavaObject)	Performs an Android runtime-checked type conversion.
JavaCast<TResult>(IJavaObject)
GetJniTypeName(IJavaPeerable)
