Class Overview

Provide an optional convenience implementation of Locator.

This module, both source code and documentation, is in the Public Domain, and comes with NO WARRANTY . See http://www.saxproject.org for further information.

This class is available mainly for application writers, who can use it to make a persistent snapshot of a locator at any point during a document parse: 

       Locator locator;
 Locator startloc;

 public void setLocator (Locator locator)
 {
         // note the locator
   this.locator = locator;
 }

 public void startDocument ()
 {
         // save the location of the start of the document
         // for future use.
   Locator startloc = new LocatorImpl(locator);
 }

Normally, parser writers will not use this class, since it is more efficient to provide location information only when requested, rather than constantly updating a Locator object.
