Demonstration of SAX2 features

This example presents a small SAX2 reader that outputs the qualified names and the respective namespace URIs of all elements and attributes in an XML file. Additionally the tree structure of the document is displayed. In three listviews the program shows the different output of the reader depending on how the SAX2 features http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces and http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes are set.
