Public Methods

public abstract String getBaseSystemId ()

Returns the base system identifier.

public abstract int getCharacterOffset ()

Returns the character offset, or -1 if no character offset is available.

public abstract int getColumnNumber ()

Returns the column number, or -1 if no column number is available.

public abstract String getEncoding ()

Returns the encoding of the current entity. Note that, for a given entity, this value can only be considered final once the encoding declaration has been read (or once it has been determined that there is no such declaration) since, no encoding having been specified on the XMLInputSource, the parser will make an initial "guess" which could be in error.

public abstract String getExpandedSystemId ()

Returns the expanded system identifier.

public abstract int getLineNumber ()

Returns the line number, or -1 if no line number is available.

public abstract String getLiteralSystemId ()

Returns the literal system identifier.

public abstract String getPublicId ()

Returns the public identifier.

public abstract String getXMLVersion ()

Returns the XML version of the current entity. This will normally be the value from the XML or text declaration or defaulted by the parser. Note that that this value may be different than the version of the processing rules applied to the current entity. For instance, an XML 1.1 document may refer to XML 1.0 entities. In such a case the rules of XML 1.1 are applied to the entire document. Also note that, for a given entity, this value can only be considered final once the XML or text declaration has been read or once it has been determined that there is no such declaration.
