## Class DSCParser

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.xmlgraphics.ps.dsc.DSCParser

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    DSCParserConstants

      public class DSCParser
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements DSCParserConstants

  Parser for DSC-compliant PostScript files (DSC = Document Structuring Conventions). The parser is implemented as a pull parser but has the ability to act as a push parser through the DSCHandler interface.

      Sets a filter for DSC events.
      Parameters:
        `filter` - the filter to use or null to disable filtering

    - #### addListener

          public void addListener(DSCListener listener)

      Adds a DSC event listener.
      Parameters:
        `listener` - the listener

    - #### removeListener

          public void removeListener(DSCListener listener)

      Removes a DSC event listener.
      Parameters:
        `listener` - the listener to remove

    - #### setListenersDisabled

          public void setListenersDisabled(boolean value)

      Allows to disable all listeners. This can be used to disable any filtering, for example in nested documents.
      Parameters:
        `value` - true to disable all listeners, false to re-enable them

    - #### isListenersDisabled

          public boolean isListenersDisabled()

      Indicates whether the listeners are currently disabled.
      Returns:
        true if they are disabled

    - #### setNestedDocumentHandler

          public void setNestedDocumentHandler(NestedDocumentHandler handler)

      Sets a NestedDocumentHandler which is used to skip nested documents like embedded EPS files. You can also process those parts in a special way.

      It is suggested to use the more generally usable `addListener(DSCListener)` and `removeListener(DSCListener)` instead. NestedDocumentHandler is internally mapped onto a `DSCListener`.

      Parameters:
        `handler` - the NestedDocumentHandler instance or null to disable the feature

    - #### setCheckEOF

          public void setCheckEOF(boolean value)

      Tells the parser whether to check for content after the EOF comment. This can be disabled to skip nested documents.
      Parameters:
        `value` - true if the check is enabled

    - #### isCheckEOF

          public boolean isCheckEOF()

      Indicates whether the parser is configured to check for content after the EOF comment.
      Returns:
        true if the check is enabled.
