public interface Parser
Basic interface for CSS (Simple API for CSS) parsers.
All CSS parsers must implement this basic interface: it allows applications to register handlers for different types of events and to initiate a parse from a URI, or a character stream.
All CSS parsers must also implement a zero-argument constructor (though other constructors are also allowed).
CSS parsers are reusable but not re-entrant: the application may reuse a parser object (possibly with a different input source) once the first parse has completed successfully, but it may not invoke the parse() methods recursively within a parse.

void setLocale(java.util.Locale locale) throws CSSException
CSS parsers are not required to provide localisation for errors and warnings; if they cannot support the requested locale, however, they must throw a CSS exception. Applications may not request a locale change in the middle of a parse.
locale
- A Java Locale object.
CSSException
- Throws an exception
(using the previous or default locale) if the
requested locale is not supported.CSSException

CSSParseException
void setDocumentHandler(DocumentHandler handler)
If the application does not register a document handler, all document events reported by the CSS parser will be silently ignored (this is the default behaviour implemented by HandlerBase).
Applications may register a new or different handler in the middle of a parse, and the CSS parser must begin using the new handler immediately.
handler
- The document handler.DocumentHandler
void setSelectorFactory(SelectorFactory selectorFactory)
void setConditionFactory(ConditionFactory conditionFactory)
void setErrorHandler(ErrorHandler handler)
If the application does not register an error event handler, all error events reported by the CSS parser will be silently ignored, except for fatalError, which will throw a CSSException (this is the default behaviour implemented by HandlerBase).
Applications may register a new or different handler in the middle of a parse, and the CSS parser must begin using the new handler immediately.
handler
- The error handler.ErrorHandler

CSSException
void parseStyleSheet(InputSource source) throws CSSException, java.io.IOException
The application can use this method to instruct the CSS parser to begin parsing an CSS document from any valid input source (a character stream, a byte stream, or a URI).
Applications may not invoke this method while a parse is in progress (they should create a new Parser instead for each additional CSS document). Once a parse is complete, an application may reuse the same Parser object, possibly with a different input source.
source
- The input source for the top-level of the
CSS document.
CSSException
- Any CSS exception, possibly
wrapping another exception.
java.io.IOException
- An IO exception from the parser,
possibly from a byte stream or character stream
supplied by the application.InputSource

void parseStyleSheet(java.lang.String uri) throws CSSException, java.io.IOException
This method is a shortcut for the common case of reading a document from a URI. It is the exact equivalent of the following:
parse(new InputSource(uri));
The URI must be fully resolved by the application before it is passed to the parser.
uri
- The URI.

- Any CSS exception, possibly
wrapping another exception.

- An IO exception from the parser,
possibly from a byte stream or character stream
