Class MOMParser

public abstract class MOMParser
extends java.lang.Object

This abstract class encapsulates the thread-specific behavior and state needed by the DefinitionManager class in order to read and parse metaobject documents from a store of some sort. (Different subclasses may support different sorts of stores).

A MOMParser instance is typically owned by a DefinitionContextStandard instance, which provides covers for the MOMParser methods. In general, clients access MOMParser functionality via the DefinitionContextStandard cover methods; they do not directly access the MOMParser methods.

The methods on this class and its subclasses are not thread-safe; the client (i.e. the DefinitionContextStandard cover methods) must perform the necessary synchronizaton.
