Handling Lexical Events

• The LexicalHandler interface reports:

  • Comments

  • CDATA sections

  • Document type declaration

  • Entities

• An optional extension that not all parsers support

• To set the LexicalHandler for a parser, set the "http://xml.org/sax/handlers/LexicalHandler" property. A SAXNotRecognizedException or SAXNotSupportedException will be thrown if the parser doesn't report lexical events
