What’s Next?

Now that you have a taste of SAX, you are ready for some of the more advanced features of the API. These include setting properties and features, using validation and namespace processing, and the EntityResolver and DTDHandler interfaces. Additionally, you’ll take a look at many less used (but still valuable) features of the Simple API for XML, as well as the optional add-ons to SAX, such as filters and the org.xml.sax.ext package. This should get those of you who are using SAX in applications up, running, and even flying past developers around you. That’s always good. Keep that editor humming, and turn the page.
