This interface defines a generic document scanner. This interface
allows a scanner to be used interchangably in existing parser
configurations.
If the parser configuration uses a document scanner that implements
this interface, components should be able to query the scanner
instance from the component manager using the following property
identifier:
"http://apache.org/xml/properties/internal/document-scanner"

Scans a 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.
Returns: True if there is more to scan, false otherwise.
