- - uk.ac.starlink.topcat.vizier.CatalogSaxHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.xml.sax.ContentHandler, org.xml.sax.DTDHandler, org.xml.sax.EntityResolver, org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler
```
public abstract class CatalogSaxHandler
extends org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler
```
SAX content handler which can make sense of a VizieR query for catalogues. The stream expected is of the kind you get if you make a query like .../viz-bin/?votable&-meta to vizier (as at Nov 2009). May 2010: .../viz-bin?votable&-meta=t gives information about sub-tables too.
