| * Interface implemented by {@link XMLStreamReader} classes that delegate to another stream reader |
| * and that can be safely unwrapped. |
| * <p> |
| * This interface gives access to the parent reader, i.e. it allows to unwrap a stream reader |
| * wrapper. It should be noted that in general, unwrapping a wrapper and accessing the parent object |
| * is not a safe operation because it may invalidate the state of the wrapper (which may still be |
| * used later). Therefore this interface must only be implemented by {@link XMLStreamReader} classes |
| * for which unwrapping is a safe operation. In particular, this interface should not be implemented |
| * by wrappers that alter the sequence of events produced by the stream reader. |
| * <p> |
| * This interface is used by |
| * {@link org.apache.axiom.util.stax.XMLStreamReaderUtils#getOriginalXMLStreamReader(XMLStreamReader)} |
| * to get access to the original parser. |
| * |
| * @deprecated |
