| Provides facilities for parsing XML documents and building Document Object |
| Model (DOM) trees from them. The |
| {@link javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory} class serves as an entry point |
| to event-based XML parsing. The |
| {@link javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory} class is an entry point |
| for dealing with DOM trees. Both factories are usually configured |
| before their factory methods are invoked. They then try to create a |
| {@link javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser} or a |
| {@link javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder} (respectively) suiting the |
| application's needs. If none can be found, an Exception is thrown. |

| Note that in order to cater for resource-constrained environments, |
| Android's XML packages currently only provide DOM Level 2 Core support |
| and a non-validating parser. This means that (a) the interface for the |
| various DOM classes might differ from other implementations and (b) |
| requesting a validating parser will always fail. |
