class ContentModelState
extends Object

A content model state. This is basically a list of pointers to the BNF expression representing the model (the ContentModel). Each element in a DTD has a content model which describes the elements that may occur inside, and the order in which they can occur.

Each time a token is reduced a new state is created.

See Annex H on page 556 of the SGML handbook for more information.
