public class ProtocolFilter
extends XMLFilterImpl

Base class to parse and filter protocol treeElements of the BioCASE protocol.

The class must be initialised with the protocolURI, the root element. Furthermore, subfilters must be registered to declare the accepted subelements of the filter registerSubFilter()/ unregisterSubFilter(). Subfilters are stored in a HashMapwhere the element's local name serves as key for the registered subfilter. If the registered subfilter for a local name is null, then all incoming treeElements will be handled within the current filter. If a real subfilter is set for a local name, all events including the startElement event are redirected to the defined subfilter. Therefore, the subfilter should be configured, before it will be registered! Note, that for those subfilters, the protocol version URI is not checked, because this should be controlled individually by the subfilter! setFilterParameter(Object)allows to set special filter parameters. When the subfilter signals parse completion ( isParsingComplete()) after the processing of the corresponding endElement event, the subfilter will be unset. For all incoming SAX events, the protocolURI and the validity of the incoming treeElements according to the registered subfilters are checked. To support filtering processes in subclasses, the following callback methods may be overwritten:

All methods (except parseElement when real subfilter has completed) are offering the possibility to influence the further event processing, because they are called before the corresponding event is forwarded to the content handler or subfilter. Events may be removed from further processing if a callback method returns null. The completion of the parsing process is signaled by the method isParsingComplete().
