This class contains static methods for creating an XML reader * from an explicit class name, or based on runtime defaults:
* ** try { * XMLReader myReader = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader(); * } catch (SAXException e) { * System.err.println(e.getMessage()); * } ** *
Note to Distributions bundled with parsers:
* You should modify the implementation of the no-arguments
* createXMLReader to handle cases where the external
* configuration mechanisms aren't set up. That method should do its
* best to return a parser when one is in the class path, even when
* nothing bound its class name to org.xml.sax.driver
so
* those configuration mechanisms would see it.
This constructor prevents the class from being instantiated.
