A TypeInfoProvider provides information about the type of the element or attribute currently being processed by a ValidatorHandler. This type information is obtained by validating document content against a schema and may be useful to the ContentHandler to which the ValidatorHandler dispatches its method calls.

public abstract class TypeInfoProvider {
// Protected Constructors
     protected TypeInfoProvider( );  
// Public Instance Methods
     public abstract org.w3c.dom.TypeInfo getAttributeTypeInfo(int index);  
     public abstract org.w3c.dom.TypeInfo getElementTypeInfo( );  
     public abstract boolean isIdAttribute(int index);  
     public abstract boolean isSpecified(int index);
