/**
 *  This interface represents an input source for data. 
 * 

This interface allows an application to encapsulate information about * an input source in a single object, which may include a public * identifier, a system identifier, a byte stream (possibly with a specified * encoding), a base URI, and/or a character stream. *

The exact definitions of a byte stream and a character stream are * binding dependent. *

The application is expected to provide objects that implement this * interface whenever such objects are needed. The application can either * provide its own objects that implement this interface, or it can use the * generic factory method DOMImplementationLS.createLSInput() * to create objects that implement this interface. *

The LSParser will use the LSInput object to * determine how to read data. The LSParser will look at the * different inputs specified in the LSInput in the following * order to know which one to read from, the first one that is not null and * not an empty string will be used: *

    *
  1. LSInput.characterStream *
  2. *
  3. * LSInput.byteStream *
  4. *
  5. LSInput.stringData *
  6. *
  7. * LSInput.systemId *
  8. *
  9. LSInput.publicId *
  10. *
*

If all inputs are null, the LSParser will report a * DOMError with its DOMError.type set to * "no-input-specified" and its DOMError.severity * set to DOMError.SEVERITY_FATAL_ERROR. *

LSInput objects belong to the application. The DOM * implementation will never modify them (though it may make copies and * modify the copies, if necessary). *

See also the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Load and Save Specification. */ public interface LSInput { /** * An attribute of a language and binding dependent type that represents * a stream of 16-bit units.
