LocatorImpl

public class LocatorImpl extends Object
implements Locator

Known Direct Subclasses Locator2Impl Locator2Impl SAX2 extension helper for holding additional Entity information, implementing the Locator2 interface.

Provide an optional convenience implementation of Locator.

This module, both source code and documentation, is in the Public Domain, and comes with NO WARRANTY. See http://www.saxproject.org for further information.

This class is available mainly for application writers, who can use it to make a persistent snapshot of a locator at any point during a document parse:

 Locator locator;
 Locator startloc;

 public void setLocator (Locator locator)
 {
         // note the locator
   this.locator = locator;
 }

 public void startDocument ()
 {
         // save the location of the start of the document
         // for future use.
   Locator startloc = new LocatorImpl(locator);
 }

Normally, parser writers will not use this class, since it is more efficient to provide location information only when requested, rather than constantly updating a Locator object.

final void	wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object.

From interface org.xml.sax.Locator

abstract int	getColumnNumber() Return the column number where the current document event ends.
abstract int	getLineNumber() Return the line number where the current document event ends.
abstract String	getPublicId() Return the public identifier for the current document event.
abstract String	getSystemId() Return the system identifier for the current document event.

Public Constructors

public LocatorImpl ()

Zero-argument constructor.

This will not normally be useful, since the main purpose of this class is to make a snapshot of an existing Locator.

public LocatorImpl (Locator locator)

Copy constructor.

Create a persistent copy of the current state of a locator. When the original locator changes, this copy will still keep the original values (and it can be used outside the scope of DocumentHandler methods).

Parameters

locator	The locator to copy.
