## Class DelegatingContentHandler

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.fop.util.DelegatingContentHandler

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    org.xml.sax.ContentHandler, org.xml.sax.DTDHandler, org.xml.sax.EntityResolver, org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler, org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    DelegatingFragmentContentHandler, GenerationHelperContentHandler

      public class DelegatingContentHandler
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements org.xml.sax.EntityResolver, org.xml.sax.DTDHandler, org.xml.sax.ContentHandler, org.xml.sax.ext.LexicalHandler, org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler

  SAX 2 Event Handler which simply delegates all calls to another ContentHandler. Subclasses can do additional processing. This class is the passive counterpart to XMLFilterImpl.

  The ContentHandler is the only instance that is required. All others (DTDHandler, EntityResolver, LexicalHandler and ErrorHandler) may be ignored.
