* Receive notification of basic DTD-related events.

* <blockquote>
* <em>This module, both source code and documentation, is in the
* Public Domain, and comes with <strong>NO WARRANTY</strong>.</em>
* </blockquote>
*
* <p>If a SAX application needs information about notations and
* unparsed entities, then the application implements this
* interface and registers an instance with the SAX parser using
* the parser's setDTDHandler method. The parser uses the
* instance to report notation and unparsed entity declarations to
* the application.</p>
*
* <p>Note that this interface includes only those DTD events that
* the XML recommendation <em>requires</em> processors to report:
* notation and unparsed entity declarations.</p>
*
* <p>The SAX parser may report these events in any order, regardless
* of the order in which the notations and unparsed entities were
* declared; however, all DTD events must be reported after the
* document handler's startDocument event, and before the first
* startElement event.</p>
*
* <p>It is up to the application to store the information for
* future use (perhaps in a hash table or object tree).
* If the application encounters attributes of type "NOTATION",
* "ENTITY", or "ENTITIES", it can use the information that it
* obtained through this interface to find the entity and/or
* notation corresponding with the attribute value.</p>
*
* @since SAX 1.0
