Interface OptionsSaxHandlerFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

PropertiesOptionsSaxHandlerFactory, XmlOptionsSaxHandlerFactory

public interface OptionsSaxHandlerFactory

Classes implementing this interface are responsible for creating OptionsSaxHandlers for a specific action type. When a action configuration needs to be parsed, a sax handler will read the type of the action and check it against the types of the registered OptionsSaxHandlers. The first matching handler will then be used to parse the action configuration.

Method Summary

OptionsSaxHandler	getOptionsSaxHandler() Returns a OptionsSaxHandler for reading the configuration of options.
String	getType() Returns the action type handled by the ActionSaxHandlers which are created by this factory.
