- XSIElementHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

AnyAttributeHandler, AttributeGroupHandler, AttributeHandler, ComplexContentHandler, ComplexTypeHandler, ElementGroupingHandler, ExtensionHandler, FacetHandler, FieldHandler, IgnoreHandler, ImportHandler, IncludeHandler, KeyHandler, KeyrefHandler, ListHandler, RedefineHandler, RestrictionHandler, RootHandler, SchemaHandler, SelectorHandler, SimpleContentHandler, SimpleTypeHandler, UnionHandler, UniqueHandler
```
public abstract class XSIElementHandler
extends Object
implements Serializable
```
This abstract class is intended to act as both a definition of what a generic handler is, and a default handler.
When extending this class, one should as a minimum replace the start/end Element methods.

Method Summary

All Methods Static Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`void`	`characters(String text)`	In most cases this class should not be called within this framework as we do not intend to parse + store all the information required to recreate the exact Schema document being parsed.
`abstract void`	`endElement(String namespaceURI, String localName)`	handles SAX end Element events. this is an opportunity to complete some post-processing
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)`
`abstract XSIElementHandler`	`getHandler(String namespaceURI, String localName)`	This method will be used to create the XSI document.
`abstract int`	`getHandlerType()`	Returns one of the Specified types ... intended for use by the child packages only
`abstract String`	`getLocalName()`	Returns the LocalName for this element (ie this declaration in the Schema ... so ComplexType or Sequence ...)
`abstract int`	`hashCode()`
`static void`	`setLogLevel(Level l)`	Sets the logging level for all XSIElementHandlers
`abstract void`	`startElement(String namespaceURI, String localName, Attributes attr)`	handles SAX start Element events.

    Returns:
    
    int (DEFAULT?)
  - characters
```
public void characters(String text)
                throws SAXException
```
    In most cases this class should not be called within this framework as we do not intend to parse + store all the information required to recreate the exact Schema document being parsed. As a result, information such as annotations are ignored. When used, they method may be called multiple times for one element. This means the implementor should keep this in mind when overriding this method.
    
    Throws:
    
    SAXException
  - endElement
```
public abstract void endElement(String namespaceURI,
                                String localName)
                         throws SAXException
```
    handles SAX end Element events. this is an opportunity to complete some post-processing
    
    Throws:
    
    SAXException
  - startElement
```
public abstract void startElement(String namespaceURI,
                                  String localName,
                                  Attributes attr)
                           throws SAXException
```
    handles SAX start Element events. This is an opportunity to complete some pre-processing.
    
    Throws:
    
    SAXException
  - getHandler
```
public abstract XSIElementHandler getHandler(String namespaceURI,
                                             String localName)
                                      throws SAXException
```
    This method will be used to create the XSI document. Validation and in-fix processing is expected to exist within this method, along with data logging for post-processing. This method will directly affect the stack being used to complete the parse.
    
    Returns:
    
    XSIElementHandler, or null
    
    Throws:
    
    SAXException
  - getLocalName
```
public abstract String getLocalName()
```
    Returns the LocalName for this element (ie this declaration in the Schema ... so ComplexType or Sequence ...)
    
    Returns:
    
    String (not-null)
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(Object obj)
```
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Object
    
    See Also:
    
    Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
  - hashCode
```
public abstract int hashCode()
```
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class Object
    
    See Also:
    
    Object.hashCode()
  - setLogLevel
```
public static void setLogLevel(Level l)
```
    Sets the logging level for all XSIElementHandlers
