public final class XPointerHandler
extends XIncludeHandler
implements XPointerProcessor

This is a pipeline component which extends the XIncludeHandler to perform XPointer specific processing specified in the W3C XPointerFramework and element() Scheme Recommendations.

This component analyzes each event in the pipeline, looking for an element that matches a PointerPart in the parent XInclude element's xpointer attribute value. If the match succeeds, all children are passed by this component.

See the XPointer Framework Recommendation for more information on the XPointer Framework and ShortHand Pointers. See the XPointer element() Scheme Recommendation for more information on the XPointer element() Scheme.
