* <p>This class implements the default behaviour for four SAX1
* interfaces: EntityResolver, DTDHandler, DocumentHandler,
* and ErrorHandler. It is now obsolete, but is included in SAX2 to
* support legacy SAX1 applications. SAX2 applications should use
* the {@link org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler DefaultHandler}
* class instead.</p>
*
* <p>Application writers can extend this class when they need to
* implement only part of an interface; parser writers can
* instantiate this class to provide default handlers when the
* application has not supplied its own.</p>
*
* <p>Note that the use of this class is optional.</p>
*
* @deprecated This class works with the deprecated
* {@link org.xml.sax.DocumentHandler DocumentHandler}
* interface. It has been replaced by the SAX2
* {@link org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler DefaultHandler}
* class.
