### send

    public void send(Receiver receiver)
              throws XPathException

### getColumnNumber

    public int getColumnNumber()

  Description copied from interface: `org.xml.sax.Locator`
  Return the column number where the current document event ends.

  Warning: The return value from the method is intended only as an approximation for the sake of error reporting; it is not intended to provide sufficient information to edit the character content of the original XML document.

  The return value is an approximation of the column number in the document entity or external parsed entity where the markup triggering the event appears.

  If possible, the SAX driver should provide the line position of the first character after the text associated with the document event.

  If possible, the SAX driver should provide the line position of the first character after the text associated with the document event. The first column in each line is column 1.

  Specified by:
    `getColumnNumber` in interface `org.xml.sax.Locator`
  Returns:
    The column number, or -1 if none is available.
  See Also:
    `Locator.getLineNumber()`

### getLineNumber

    public int getLineNumber()

  Description copied from interface: `org.xml.sax.Locator`
  Return the line number where the current document event ends.

  Specified by:
    `getLineNumber` in interface `org.xml.sax.Locator`
  Returns:
    The line number, or -1 if none is available.

    `Locator.getColumnNumber()`

### getPublicId

    public java.lang.String getPublicId()

  Description copied from interface: `org.xml.sax.Locator`
  Return the public identifier for the current document event.

  The return value is the public identifier of the document entity or of the external parsed entity in which the markup triggering the event appears.

  Specified by:
    `getPublicId` in interface `org.xml.sax.Locator`
  Returns:
    A string containing the public identifier, or null if none is available.
  See Also:
    `Locator.getSystemId()`

### getSystemId

    public java.lang.String getSystemId()

  Description copied from interface: `org.xml.sax.Locator`
  Return the system identifier for the current document event.

  The return value is the system identifier of the document entity or of the external parsed entity in which the markup triggering the event appears.

  If the system identifier is a URL, the parser must resolve it fully before passing it to the application.

  Specified by:
    `getSystemId` in interface `org.xml.sax.Locator`
  Returns:
    A string containing the system identifier, or null if none is available.
  See Also:
    `Locator.getPublicId()`

### getSystemId

    public java.lang.String getSystemId(int locationId)

  Specified by:
    `getSystemId` in interface `LocationProvider`

### getLineNumber

    public int getLineNumber(int locationId)

  Specified by:
    `getLineNumber` in interface `LocationProvider`
