/* This is called for a reference to an external parsed general entity.
The referenced entity is not automatically parsed.
The application can parse it immediately or later using
XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate.
The parser argument is the parser parsing the entity containing the reference;
it can be passed as the parser argument to XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate.
The systemId argument is the system identifier as specified in the entity declaration;
it will not be null.
The base argument is the system identifier that should be used as the base for
resolving systemId if systemId was relative; this is set by XML_SetBase;
it may be null.
The publicId argument is the public identifier as specified in the entity declaration,
or null if none was specified; the whitespace in the public identifier
will have been normalized as required by the XML spec.
The openEntityNames argument is a space-separated list of the names of the entities
that are open for the parse of this entity (including the name of the referenced
entity); this can be passed as the openEntityNames argument to
XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate; openEntityNames is valid only until the handler
returns, so if the referenced entity is to be parsed later, it must be copied.
The handler should return 0 if processing should not continue because of
a fatal error in the handling of the external entity.
In this case the calling parser will return an XML_ERROR_EXTERNAL_ENTITY_HANDLING
error.
Note that unlike other handlers the first argument is the parser, not userData. */

/* This structure is filled in by the XML_UnknownEncodingHandler
to provide information to the parser about encodings that are unknown
to the parser.
The map[b] member gives information about byte sequences
whose first byte is b.
If map[b] is c where c is >= 0, then b by itself encodes the Unicode scalar value c.
If map[b] is -1, then the byte sequence is malformed.
If map[b] is -n, where n >= 2, then b is the first byte of an n-byte
sequence that encodes a single Unicode scalar value.
The data member will be passed as the first argument to the convert function.
The convert function is used to convert multibyte sequences;
s will point to a n-byte sequence where map[(unsigned char)*s] == -n.
The convert function must return the Unicode scalar value
represented by this byte sequence or -1 if the byte sequence is malformed.
The convert function may be null if the encoding is a single-byte encoding,
that is if map[b] >= -1 for all bytes b.
When the parser is finished with the encoding, then if release is not null,
it will call release passing it the data member;
once release has been called, the convert function will not be called again.

Expat places certain restrictions on the encodings that are supported
using this mechanism.

1. Every ASCII character that can appear in a well-formed XML document,
other than the characters

  $@\^`{}~

must be represented by a single byte, and that byte must be the
same byte that represents that character in ASCII.

2. No character may require more than 4 bytes to encode.

3. All characters encoded must have Unicode scalar values <= 0xFFFF,
(ie characters that would be encoded by surrogates in UTF-16
are  not allowed).  Note that this restriction doesn't apply to
the built-in support for UTF-8 and UTF-16.

4. No Unicode character may be encoded by more than one distinct sequence
of bytes. */
