package com.sun.beans.decoder;

This class is intended to handle <char> element. This element specifies char values. The class Character is used as wrapper for these values. The result value is created from text of the body of this element. The body parsing is described in the class StringElementHandler. For example:
<char>X</char>
which is equivalent to Character.valueOf('X') in Java code.

The following attributes are supported:

code
this attribute specifies character code
id
the identifier of the variable that is intended to store the result
The code attribute can be used for characters that are illegal in XML document, for example:
<char code="0"/>
