43 * <p>If a SAX application needs information about notations and
44 * unparsed entities, then the application implements this
45 * interface and registers an instance with the SAX parser using
46 * the parser's setDTDHandler method. The parser uses the
47 * instance to report notation and unparsed entity declarations to
48 * the application.</p>
49 *
50 * <p>Note that this interface includes only those DTD events that
51 * the XML recommendation <em>requires</em> processors to report:
52 * notation and unparsed entity declarations.</p>
53 *
54 * <p>The SAX parser may report these events in any order, regardless
55 * of the order in which the notations and unparsed entities were
56 * declared; however, all DTD events must be reported after the
57 * document handler's startDocument event, and before the first
58 * startElement event.
59 * (If the {@link org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler LexicalHandler} is
60 * used, these events must also be reported before the endDTD event.)
61 * </p>
62 *
63 * <p>It is up to the application to store the information for
64 * future use (perhaps in a hash table or object tree).
65 * If the application encounters attributes of type "NOTATION",
66 * "ENTITY", or "ENTITIES", it can use the information that it
67 * obtained through this interface to find the entity and/or
68 * notation corresponding with the attribute value.</p>
