Default base class for SAX2 event handlers.

This class is available as a convenience base class for SAX2 applications: it provides default implementations for all of the callbacks in the four core SAX2 handler classes:

Application writers can extend this class when they need to implement only part of an interface; parser writers can instantiate this class to provide default handlers when the application has not supplied its own.

This class replaces the deprecated SAX1 HandlerBase class.

Resolve an external entity.

Always return null, so that the parser will use the system identifier provided in the XML document. This method implements the SAX default behaviour: application writers can override it in a subclass to do special translations such as catalog lookups or URI redirection.

Params:
  • publicId – The public identifier, or null if none is available.
  • systemId – The system identifier provided in the XML document.
Throws:
  • IOException – If there is an error setting up the new input source.
  • SAXException – Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.
