    public class XMLIndenter

extends ProxyReceiver

XMLIndenter: This ProxyReceiver indents elements, by adding character data where appropriate. The character data is always added as "ignorable white space", that is, it is never added adjacent to existing character data.

    `open` in class `ProxyReceiver`
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### startElement

    public void startElement(int nameCode,
                             int typeCode,
                             int locationId,

    `startElement` in class `ProxyReceiver`
  Parameters:
    `nameCode` - integer code identifying the name of the element within the name pool.
    `typeCode` - integer code identifying the element's type within the name pool.
    `locationId` - an integer which can be interpreted using a `LocationProvider` to return information such as line number and system ID. If no location information is available, the value zero is supplied.
    `properties` - properties of the element node
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### attribute

    public void attribute(int nameCode,
                          int typeCode,
                          java.lang.CharSequence value,
                          int locationId,
                          int properties)

  Parameters:
    `nameCode` - The name of the attribute, as held in the name pool
    `typeCode` - The type of the attribute, as held in the name pool
    `value` - the string value of the attribute
    `locationId` - an integer which can be interpreted using a `LocationProvider` to return information such as line number and system ID. If no location information is available, the value zero is supplied.
    `properties` - Bit significant value. The following bits are defined:
    DISABLE_ESCAPING
  Disable escaping for this attribute
    NO_SPECIAL_CHARACTERS
  Attribute value contains no special characters
  Throws:
    `XPathException`

### endElement
