| * Interface for an element's attribute specifications. |

| * <em>This module, both source code and documentation, is in the |
| * Public Domain, and comes with <strong>NO WARRANTY</strong>.</em> |
| * See <a href='http://www.saxproject.org'>http://www.saxproject.org</a> |
| * for further information. |
| * </blockquote> |
| * |
| * <p>This is the original SAX1 interface for reporting an element's |
| * attributes. Unlike the new {@link org.xml.sax.Attributes Attributes} |
| * interface, it does not support Namespace-related information. |
| * |
| * <p>When an attribute list is supplied as part of a |
| * {@link org.xml.sax.DocumentHandler#startElement startElement} |
| * event, the list will return valid results only during the |
| * scope of the event; once the event handler returns control |
| * to the parser, the attribute list is invalid. To save a |
| * persistent copy of the attribute list, use the SAX1 |
| * {@link org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributeListImpl AttributeListImpl} |
| * helper class. |
| * |
| * <p>An attribute list includes only attributes that have been |
| * specified or defaulted: #IMPLIED attributes will not be included. |
| * |
| * <p>There are two ways for the SAX application to obtain information |
| * from the AttributeList. First, it can iterate through the entire |
| * list: |
| * |
| * <pre>{@code |
| * public void startElement (String name, AttributeList atts) { |
| * for (int i = 0; i < atts.getLength(); i++) { |
| * String name = atts.getName(i); |
| * String type = atts.getType(i); |
| * String value = atts.getValue(i); |
| * [...] |
| * } |
| * } |
| * }</pre> |
| * |
| * <p>(Note that the result of getLength() will be zero if there |
| * are no attributes.) |
| * |
| * <p>As an alternative, the application can request the value or |
| * type of specific attributes: |
| * |
| * <pre> |
| * public void startElement (String name, AttributeList atts) { |
| * String identifier = atts.getValue("id"); |
| * String label = atts.getValue("label"); |
| * [...] |
| * } |
| * </pre> |
| * |
| * @deprecated This interface has been replaced by the SAX2 |
| * {@link org.xml.sax.Attributes Attributes} |
| * interface, which includes Namespace support. |
| * @since 1.4, SAX 1.0 |
| * @author David Megginson |
| * @see org.xml.sax.DocumentHandler#startElement startElement |
| * @see org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributeListImpl AttributeListImpl |
