+ * <p>If a SAX application needs to implement customized handling
+ * for external entities, it must implement this interface and
+ * register an instance with the SAX driver using the
+ * {@link org.xml.sax.XMLReader#setEntityResolver setEntityResolver}
+ * method.</p>
+ *
+ * <p>The XML reader will then allow the application to intercept any
+ * external entities (including the external DTD subset and external
+ * parameter entities, if any) before including them.</p>
+ *
+ * <p>Many SAX applications will not need to implement this interface,
+ * but it will be especially useful for applications that build
+ * XML documents from databases or other specialised input sources,
+ * or for applications that use URI types other than URLs.</p>
+ *
+ * <p>The following resolver would provide the application
+ * with a special character stream for the entity with the system
+ * identifier "http://www.myhost.com/today":</p>
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * import org.xml.sax.EntityResolver;
+ * import org.xml.sax.InputSource;
+ *
+ * public class MyResolver implements EntityResolver {
+ * public InputSource resolveEntity (String publicId, String systemId)
+ * {
+ * if (systemId.equals("http://www.myhost.com/today")) {
+ * // return a special input source
+ * MyReader reader = new MyReader();
+ * return new InputSource(reader);
+ * } else {
+ * // use the default behaviour
+ * return null;
+ * }
+ * }
+ * }
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * <p>The application can also use this interface to redirect system
+ * identifiers to local URIs or to look up replacements in a catalog
+ * (possibly by using the public identifier).</p>
+ *
+ * @since 1.4, SAX 1.0

+ * the external DTD subset and external parameter entities referenced
+ * within the DTD (in either case, only if the parser reads external
+ * parameter entities), and external general entities referenced
+ * within the document element (if the parser reads external general
+ * entities). The application may request that the parser locate

+ *
+ * <p>Application writers can use this method to redirect external

+ * public identifiers in a catalogue, or to read an entity from a
+ * database or other input source (including, for example, a dialog
+ * box). Neither XML nor SAX specifies a preferred policy for using
+ * public or system IDs to resolve resources. However, SAX specifies
+ * how to interpret any InputSource returned by this method, and that
+ * if none is returned, then the system ID will be dereferenced as
+ * a URL. </p>

+ * <p>If the system identifier is a URL, the SAX parser must

+ * or null to request that the parser open a regular
+ * URI connection to the system identifier.
+ * @exception org.xml.sax.SAXException Any SAX exception, possibly
+ * wrapping another exception.
+ * @exception java.io.IOException A Java-specific IO exception,
+ * possibly the result of creating a new InputStream
