// .NAME vtkXMLParser - Parse XML to handle element tags and attributes.
// .SECTION Description
// vtkXMLParser reads a stream and parses XML element tags and corresponding
// attributes.  Each element begin tag and its attributes are sent to
// the StartElement method.  Each element end tag is sent to the
// EndElement method.  Subclasses should replace these methods to actually
// use the tags.
// .SECTION ToDo: Add commands for parsing in Tcl.
