Field Detail

### lengthHandler

    protected LengthHandler lengthHandler

  The length handler used to report parse events.

Constructor Detail

### LengthParser

    public LengthParser()

  Creates a new LengthParser.

Method Detail

### setLengthHandler

    public void setLengthHandler(LengthHandler handler)

  Allows an application to register a length handler.

  If the application does not register a handler, all events reported by the parser will be silently ignored.

  Applications may register a new or different handler in the middle of a parse, and the parser must begin using the new handler immediately.

  Parameters:
    `handler` - The transform list handler.

### getLengthHandler

    public LengthHandler getLengthHandler()

  Returns the length handler in use.

### doParse

    protected void doParse()
                    throws ParseException,
                           java.io.IOException

  Description copied from class: `AbstractParser`
  Method responsible for actually parsing data after AbstractParser has initialized itself.

  Specified by:
    `doParse` in class `AbstractParser`
  Throws:
    `ParseException`
    `java.io.IOException`

### parseLength

    protected void parseLength()
                        throws ParseException,
                               java.io.IOException
