This interface defines a generic DTD scanner. This interface allows a scanner to be used interchangably in existing parser configurations.

If the parser configuration uses a DTD scanner that implements this interface, components should be able to query the scanner instance from the component manager using the following property identifier:

Sets the input source.
Params:
  • inputSource – The input source or null.
Throws:
/** * Sets the input source. * * @param inputSource The input source or null. * * @throws IOException Thrown on i/o error. */
public void setInputSource(XMLInputSource inputSource) throws IOException;
Scans the internal subset of the document.
Params:
  • complete – True if the scanner should scan the document completely, pushing all events to the registered document handler. A value of false indicates that that the scanner should only scan the next portion of the document and return. A scanner instance is permitted to completely scan a document if it does not support this "pull" scanning model.
  • standalone – True if the document was specified as standalone. This value is important for verifying certain well-formedness constraints.
  • hasExternalSubset – True if the document has an external DTD. This allows the scanner to properly notify the handler of the end of the DTD in the absence of an external subset.
Returns:True if there is more to scan, false otherwise.

Params:

Throws:
Returns:true if DTD is skipped, false otherwise.
