/**
 * Defines the API that wraps an {@link org.xml.sax.XMLReader}
 * implementation class. In JAXP 1.0, this class wrapped the
 * {@link org.xml.sax.Parser} interface, however this interface was
 * replaced by the {@link org.xml.sax.XMLReader}. For ease
 * of transition, this class continues to support the same name
 * and interface as well as supporting new methods.
 *
 * An instance of this class can be obtained from the
 * {@link javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory#newSAXParser()} method.
 * Once an instance of this class is obtained, XML can be parsed from
 * a variety of input sources. These input sources are InputStreams,
 * Files, URLs, and SAX InputSources.<p>
 *
 * This static method creates a new factory instance based
 * on a system property setting or uses the platform default
 * if no property has been defined.<p>
 *
 * The system property that controls which Factory implementation
 * to create is named <code>"javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory"</code>.
 * This property names a class that is a concrete subclass of this
 * abstract class. If no property is defined, a platform default
 * will be used.</p>
 *
 * As the content is parsed by the underlying parser, methods of the
 * given {@link org.xml.sax.HandlerBase} or the
 * {@link org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler} are called.<p>
 *
 * Implementors of this class which wrap an underlaying implementation
 * can consider using the {@link org.xml.sax.helpers.ParserAdapter}
 * class to initially adapt their SAX1 impelemntation to work under
 * this revised class.
