/**
* Extended interface that implements functionality that is necessary
* to properly build event API on top of {@link XMLStreamReader}.
* It also adds limited number of methods that are important for
* efficient pass-through processing (such as one needed when routing
* SOAP-messages).
*
* The features supported via {@link #setFeature} are:
*
* FEATURE_DTD_OVERRIDE: (write-only)
* Feature used to specify the source for DTD external subset to use
* instead of DTD specified by the XML document itself (if any).
* Setting the feature for a reader that supports DTD validation
* essentially allows for injecting an alternate DOCTYPE declaration.
* Note that setting this value to null is both legal, and sometimes
* useful: it is equivalent of removing the DOCTYPE declaration.
*
Feature is write-only, since storing it after loading the DTD
* in question does not have much use.
*
*
*
* Since version 3.0, stream writer will also implement "Typed Access API"
* on output side.
