  - ### processElement

    protected abstract boolean processElement(String namespaceURI, String localName, Attributes attributes) throws SAXException
    Description copied from class: `SAXNestedTagHandler`
    Main method to process XML content. Should be override in subclasses, by default do nothing. Return value should be true if tag was fully processed and shouldn't be passed down to child handler.
    Overrides:
      `processElement` in class `SAXNestedTagHandler`
    Parameters:
      `namespaceURI` - namespace for tag
      `localName` - tag local name (i.e. w/o namespace prefix)
      `attributes` - tag attributes
    Returns:
      true if tag was processed
    Throws:
      `SAXException` - can be thrown to abort parsing
    See Also:
      - `SAXNestedTagHandler.createChildTagHandler(String, String, String, Attributes)`

  - ### processCharData

    protected boolean processCharData(String localName, String data)

  - ### characters

    public void characters(char[] ch, int start, int length) throws SAXException
    Specified by:
      `characters` in interface `ContentHandler`
    Overrides:
      `characters` in class `DefaultHandler`
    Throws:
      `SAXException`

  - ### startElement

    public final void startElement(String namespaceURI, String localName, String qName, Attributes attributes) throws SAXException
    Description copied from class: `SAXNestedTagHandler`
    This method directly called by SAX parser, do not override it directly, use `SAXNestedTagHandler.processElement(String, String, Attributes)` method instead to process content.
    Specified by:
      `startElement` in interface `ContentHandler`
    Overrides:
      `startElement` in class `SAXNestedTagHandler`
    Throws:
      `SAXException`
    See Also:
      - `SAXNestedTagHandler.createChildTagHandler(String, String, String, Attributes)`

  - ### endElement

    public void endElement(String namespaceURI, String localName, String qName) throws SAXException
    Specified by:
      `endElement` in interface `ContentHandler`
    Overrides:
      `endElement` in class `SAXNestedTagHandler`
    Throws:
      `SAXException`

  - ### createChildTagHandler

    protected ContentHandler createChildTagHandler(String namespaceURI, String localName, String qName, Attributes attributes)
    Description copied from class: `SAXNestedTagHandler`
    This method should be used to create nested handlers to process children elements. This method should never return `null`.
    Overrides:
      `createChildTagHandler` in class `SAXNestedTagHandler`
    Parameters:
      `namespaceURI` - namespace for tag
      `localName` - tag local name (i.e. w/o namespace prefix)
      `qName` - tag full name (i.e. with namespace prefix)
      `attributes` - tag attributes
    Returns:
      new handler to process child tag

  - ### setTargetNamespace

    public void setTargetNamespace(String targetNamespace)

  - ### setAllowAllNamespaces
