Java in a Nutshell, 5th Edition

Name

Attributes2

Synopsis

This interface extends org.xml.sax.Attributes and adds methods for determining if an attribute was declared in the DTD and whether an attribute value was explicitly specified in the document or whether a default value from the DTD was used. If the SAX implementation supports this interface, the Attributes object passed to the startElement( ) method of the ContentHandler implements this interface. You can also test for support by querying the feature named “http://xml.org/sax/features/use-attributes2” with XMLReader.getFeature( ).
