*
* <p>This was the main event-handling interface for SAX1; in
* SAX2, it has been replaced by {@link org.xml.sax.ContentHandler
* ContentHandler}, which provides Namespace support and reporting
* of skipped entities. This interface is included in SAX2 only
* to support legacy SAX1 applications.</p>
*
* <p>The order of events in this interface is very important, and
* mirrors the order of information in the document itself. For
* example, all of an element's content (character data, processing
* instructions, and/or subelements) will appear, in order, between
* the startElement event and the corresponding endElement event.</p>
*
* <p>Application writers who do not want to implement the entire
* interface can derive a class from HandlerBase, which implements
* the default functionality; parser writers can instantiate
* HandlerBase to obtain a default handler. The application can find
* the location of any document event using the Locator interface
* supplied by the Parser through the setDocumentLocator method.</p>
*
* @deprecated This interface has been replaced by the SAX2
* {@link org.xml.sax.ContentHandler ContentHandler}
* interface, which includes Namespace support.
* @since SAX 1.0
* @see org.xml.sax.Parser#setDocumentHandler
* @see org.xml.sax.Locator
