/**
 * Unmarshaller implemented as SAX ContentHandler.
 * 
 * 
 * Applications can use this interface to use their JAXB provider as a component 
 * in an XML pipeline.  For example:
 * 
 * 
 *       JAXBContext context = JAXBContext.newInstance( "org.acme.foo" );
 *
 *       Unmarshaller unmarshaller = context.createUnmarshaller();
 * 
 *       UnmarshallerHandler unmarshallerHandler = unmarshaller.getUnmarshallerHandler();
 *
 *       SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
 *       spf.setNamespaceAware( true );
 * 
 *       XMLReader xmlReader = spf.newSAXParser().getXMLReader();
 *       xmlReader.setContentHandler( unmarshallerHandler );
 *       xmlReader.parse(new InputSource( new FileInputStream( XML_FILE ) ) );
 *
 *       MyObject myObject= (MyObject)unmarshallerHandler.getResult();                          
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * This interface is reusable: even if the user fails to unmarshal
 * an object, s/he can still start a new round of unmarshalling.
