Re: Can a stream other than the uri and file be passed to the parsemethodin SAX ???

[Rob Lugt <roblugt@elcel.com>]

In short, yes you can.  Have a look at the class sax.InputSource.

Assuming you are using the java language, if you have a character buffer
then you can construct the sax.InputSource with a java.io.Reader.  Depending
on how you have implemented your buffer you can use one of the derivations
of java.io.Reader such as CharArrayReader.  Alternatively, if you have a
buffer of bytes that requires further decoding into characters then you can
construct the sax.InputSource from a java.io.InputStream (again look at the
derivations - one of them will be suitable for you - perhaps
ByteArrayInputStream).
