Package net.sf.saxon.lib

package net.sf.saxon.lib

This package collects together interfaces intended for user applications to implement in order to customize Saxon's behavior, default implementations of these interfaces, and classes containing constants that are used in public Saxon interfaces.

These interfaces were brought together into this package in Saxon 9.3, having previously been dispersed around the package hierarchy and mixed with classes and interfaces intended only for internal use.
