<DL>
<DT>public abstract class <B>DocumentBuilder</B><DT>extends java.lang.Object</DL>
<P>
Defines the API to obtain DOM Document instances from an XML
document. Using this class, an application programmer can obtain a
<A HREF="../../../org/w3c/dom/Document.html"><CODE>Document</CODE></A> from XML.<p>
An instance of this class can be obtained from the
<A HREF="../../../javax/xml/parsers/DocumentBuilderFactory.html#newDocumentBuilder()"><CODE>DocumentBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder()</CODE></A> method. Once
an instance of this class is obtained, XML can be parsed from a
variety of input sources. These input sources are InputStreams,
Files, URLs, and SAX InputSources.<p>
Note that this class reuses several classes from the SAX API. This
does not require that the implementor of the underlying DOM
implementation use a SAX parser to parse XML document into a
<code>Document</code>. It merely requires that the implementation
communicate with the application using these existing APIs.
