/**
 * Dummy implementation of {@link DatatypeStreamingValidator}.
 * 
 * <p>
 * This implementation can be used as a quick hack when the performance
 * of streaming validation is not important. And this implementation
 * also shows you how to implement the DatatypeStreamingValidator interface.
 * 
 * <p>
 * Typical usage would be:
 * <PRE><XMP>
 * class MyDatatype implements Datatype {
 *     ....
 *     public DatatypeStreamingValidator createStreamingValidator( ValidationContext context ) {
 *         return new StreamingValidatorImpl(this,context);
 *     }
 *     ....
 * }
 * </XMP></PRE>
