Class XmlParser

java.lang.Object
  org.iscreen.impl.xml.XmlParser

public class XmlParser
extends java.lang.Object

Parses XML configuration files. This is the parser for the default XML configuration file format. It requires an instance of the OgnlXmlServiceFactory in order to work properly. It calls back into the factory to notify it of configuration elements. This parser uses DOM (not SAX), though it treats the service factory more like SAX in that it notifies it of config events.
