BeanDefinitionDocumentReader (Spring Framework 4.3.30.RELEASE API)

All Known Implementing Classes:
DefaultBeanDefinitionDocumentReader
```
public interface BeanDefinitionDocumentReader
```
SPI for parsing an XML document that contains Spring bean definitions. Used by XmlBeanDefinitionReader for actually parsing a DOM document.
Instantiated per document to parse: implementations can hold state in instance variables during the execution of the registerBeanDefinitions method — for example, global settings that are defined for all bean definitions in the document.
