Like SAX2's InputSource
class,
this interface is an abstraction of all the different things
(streams, files, byte arrays, sockets, URLs, etc.) from which
an XML document can be read.
Java Binding:
package org.w3c.dom.ls;
public interface DOMInputSource {
public InputStream getByteStream();
public void setByteStream(InputStream in);
public Reader getCharacterStream();
public void setCharacterStream(Reader in);
public String getStringData();
public void setStringData(String data);
public String getEncoding();
public void setEncoding(String encoding);
public String getPublicId();
public void setPublicId(String publicId);
public String getSystemId();
public void setSystemId(String systemId);
}
