How to use Xerces parser in my code

Question

Hello all,
This is my first time in the forumn. I am a beginer to xml. I am trying to use xerces SAX parser to parse the xml document. I have downloaded xerces 2.6.2 in the c drive. Can you please guide me how can I use it in my piece of code and how to execute. I tried using the parser available on my system. This code works fine. But I am confused with how can modify my code to parse using Xerces parser.
Help appreciated!
import javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory;//This class creates instances of SAX parser factory
import javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser;//factory returns the SAXParser
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;//if the parser configuration does not match throws exception
/*2 statements can be substituted by import org.xml.sax.*;
     This has interfaces we use for SAX Parsers.
     Has Interfaces that are used for SAX Parser.
import org.xml.sax.XMLReader;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class CallSAX_18 {
     public static void main (String []args)
               throws SAXException,
               ParserConfigurationException
               IOException {
     /*     3 statement below can be substitued by this below 1 statement when using other parser
XMLReader xmlReader = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader("org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");
          SAXParserFactory factory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
          SAXParser saxParser = factory.newSAXParser();
          XMLReader xmlReader = saxParser.getXMLReader();
          /*/MyContentHandler has callback methods that the SAX parser will use.This class implements startElement() endElement() etc methods.
          DBContentHandler dbcontent = new DBContentHandler();
          xmlReader.setContentHandler(dbcontent);
          xmlReader.parse(new File(args[0]).toURL().toString());

Well, I am not too familiar with SAX, but I know my DOMs 8-)
is there a reason you are using SAX to parse versus DOM?
what is your final objective that you want to accomplish? Perhaps
DOM might be better? Are you trying to parsing XML into nodes?
