/**
 * A single input source for an XML entity.
 *
 * <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 class allows a SAX application to encapsulate information
 * about an input source in a single object, which may include
 * a public identifier, a system identifier, a byte stream (possibly
 * with a specified encoding), and/or a character stream.</p>
 *
 * <p>There are two places that the application will deliver this
 * input source to the parser: as the argument to the Parser.parse
 * method, or as the return value of the EntityResolver.resolveEntity
 * method.</p>
 *
 * <p>The SAX parser will use the InputSource object to determine how
 * to read XML input.  If there is a character stream available, the
 * parser will read that stream directly; if not, the parser will use
 * a byte stream, if available; if neither a character stream nor a
 * byte stream is available, the parser will attempt to open a URI
 * connection to the resource identified by the system
 * identifier.</p>
 *
 * <p>An InputSource object belongs to the application: the SAX parser
 * shall never modify it in any way (it may modify a copy if 
 * necessary).</p>
