      Throws:
        `XPathException`

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getNormalizer

          public Normalizer getNormalizer()

      Get the underlying normalizer
      Returns:
        the underlying Normalizer

    - #### startElement

          public void startElement​(NodeName elemName,
                                   SchemaType type,
                                   AttributeMap attributes,

                            throws XPathException

      Notify the start of an element
      Specified by:
        `startElement` in interface `Receiver`
      Overrides:
        `startElement` in class `ProxyReceiver`
      Parameters:
        `elemName` - the name of the element.
        `type` - the type annotation of the element.
        `attributes` - the attributes of this element
        `namespaces` - the in-scope namespaces of this element: generally this is all the in-scope namespaces, without relying on inheriting namespaces from parent elements
        `location` - an object providing information about the module, line, and column where the node originated
        `properties` - bit-significant properties of the element node. If there are no relevant properties, zero is supplied. The definitions of the bits are in class `ReceiverOption`
      Throws:
        `XPathException` - if an error occurs

    - #### characters

          public void characters​(java.lang.CharSequence chars,

                          throws XPathException

      Output character data
      Specified by:
        `characters` in interface `Receiver`
      Overrides:
        `characters` in class `ProxyReceiver`
      Parameters:
        `chars` - The characters
        `locationId` - provides information such as line number and system ID.
        `properties` - Bit significant value. The following bits are defined:
        DISABLE_ESCAPING
          Disable escaping for this text node
        USE_CDATA
          Output as a CDATA section
      Throws:
        `XPathException` - if an error occurs

    - #### normalize

          public java.lang.CharSequence normalize​(java.lang.CharSequence in,
                                                  boolean containsNullMarkers)
