// SAX locator interface for document events.

/**
* Interface for associating a SAX event with a document location.
*
* <blockquote>
* <em>This module, both source code and documentation, is in the
* Public Domain, and comes with <strong>NO WARRANTY</strong>.</em>
* </blockquote>
*
* <p>If a SAX parser provides location information to the SAX
* application, it does so by implementing this interface and then
* passing an instance to the application using the content
* handler's {@link org.xml.sax.ContentHandler#setDocumentLocator
* setDocumentLocator} method. The application can use the
* object to obtain the location of any other content handler event
* in the XML source document.</p>
*
* <p>Note that the results returned by the object will be valid only
* during the scope of each content handler method: the application
* will receive unpredictable results if it attempts to use the
* locator at any other time.</p>
*
* <p>SAX parsers are not required to supply a locator, but they are
* very strongly encouraged to do so. If the parser supplies a
* locator, it must do so before reporting any other document events.
* If no locator has been set by the time the application receives
* the {@link org.xml.sax.ContentHandler#startDocument startDocument}
* event, the application should assume that a locator is not
* available.</p>
*
* @since SAX 1.0
* @author David Megginson,
* <a href="mailto:sax@megginson.com">sax@megginson.com</a>
* @version 2.0
* @see org.xml.sax.ContentHandler#setDocumentLocator
