All Implemented Interfaces:

public class PersistenceXmlMetaDataHandler
extends AbstractXmlMetaDataHandler

XML parser handler for "persistence.xml" files to convert them into a PersistenceFileMetaData. Implements DefaultHandler and handles the extracting of MetaData from the XML elements/attributes. This class simply constructs the MetaData representation mirroring what is in the XML MetaData file.

Operates the parse process using a Stack. XML MetaData components are added to the stack as they are encountered and created. They are then popped off the stack when the end element is encountered.
