Class XmlParser

public class XmlParser extends Object

XML Parser wrapper. This class wraps any standard JAXP1.1 parser with convieniant error and entity handlers and a mini dom-like document tree.

By default, the parser is created as a validating parser. This can be changed by setting the "org.mortbay.xml.XmlParser.NotValidating" system property to true.
