- * Interface for an element's attribute specifications.
- *
- * <blockquote>
- * <em>This module, both source code and documentation, is in the
- * Public Domain, and comes with <strong>NO WARRANTY</strong>.</em>
- * </blockquote>
- *
- * <p>This is the original SAX1 interface for reporting an element's
- * attributes. Unlike the new {@link org.xml.sax.Attributes Attributes}
- * interface, it does not support Namespace-related information.</p>
- *
- * <p>When an attribute list is supplied as part of a
- * {@link org.xml.sax.DocumentHandler#startElement startElement}
- * event, the list will return valid results only during the
- * scope of the event; once the event handler returns control
- * to the parser, the attribute list is invalid. To save a
- * persistent copy of the attribute list, use the SAX1
- * {@link org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributeListImpl AttributeListImpl}
- * helper class.</p>
- *
- * <p>An attribute list includes only attributes that have been
- * specified or defaulted: #IMPLIED attributes will not be included.</p>
- *
- * <p>There are two ways for the SAX application to obtain information
- * from the AttributeList. First, it can iterate through the entire
- * list:</p>
- *
- * <pre>
- * public void startElement (String name, AttributeList atts) {
- * for (int i = 0; i < atts.getLength(); i++) {
- * String name = atts.getName(i);
- * String type = atts.getType(i);
- * String value = atts.getValue(i);
- * [...]
- * }
- * }
- * </pre>
- *
- * <p>(Note that the result of getLength() will be zero if there
- * are no attributes.)
- *
- * <p>As an alternative, the application can request the value or
- * type of specific attributes:</p>
- *
- * <pre>
- * public void startElement (String name, AttributeList atts) {
- * String identifier = atts.getValue("id");
- * String label = atts.getValue("label");
- * [...]
- * }
- * </pre>
- *
- * @deprecated This interface has been replaced by the SAX2
- * {@link org.xml.sax.Attributes Attributes}
- * interface, which includes Namespace support.
