It's default behaviour is to pass the input directly to the output +unchanged. It can be useful to use this module as a base class so you don't have +to, for example, implement the characters() callback. + +The main advantages that it provides are easy dispatching of events the right +way (ie it takes care for you of checking that the handler has implemented that +method, or has defined an AUTOLOAD), and the guarantee that filters will pass +along events that they aren't implementing to handlers downstream that might +nevertheless be interested in them. + +WWW: http://search.cpan.org/dist/XML-SAX-Base/ |
