public interface ProcessorChain

Basic interface for Output- and Input-Processor chains

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	doFinal() Will finally be called when the whole document is processed Important note: Every processor in the chain has to call doFinal() in its own doFinal() method.
void	reset() resets the chain so that the next event will go again to the first processor in the chain.

Method Detail

reset

void reset()

resets the chain so that the next event will go again to the first processor in the chain.

doFinal

void doFinal()
      throws XMLStreamException,
             XMLSecurityException

Will finally be called when the whole document is processed Important note: Every processor in the chain has to call doFinal() in its own doFinal() method. InputProcessors should call it before doing other stuff to keep the processing order. Remember the input-chain is in principle processed in the reverse order since we "leech" the events through the chain. So that means that we should do the same for the doFinal method, otherwise we may run into troubles.

Throws:

XMLStreamException - thrown when a streaming error occurs

XMLSecurityException - thrown when a Security failure occurs
