AttributeList implements the deprecated SAX1 {@link + * org.xml.sax.AttributeList AttributeList} interface, and has been + * replaced by the new SAX2 {@link org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributesImpl + * AttributesImpl} interface.
+ * + *This class provides a convenience implementation of the SAX + * {@link org.xml.sax.AttributeList AttributeList} interface. This + * implementation is useful both for SAX parser writers, who can use + * it to provide attributes to the application, and for SAX application + * writers, who can use it to create a persistent copy of an element's + * attribute specifications:
+ * + *
+ * private AttributeList myatts;
+ *
+ * public void startElement (String name, AttributeList atts)
+ * {
+ * // create a persistent copy of the attribute list
+ * // for use outside this method
+ * myatts = new AttributeListImpl(atts);
+ * [...]
+ * }
+ *
+ *
+ * Please note that SAX parsers are not required to use this + * class to provide an implementation of AttributeList; it is + * supplied only as an optional convenience. In particular, + * parser writers are encouraged to invent more efficient + * implementations.
