Hi,

As stated in the JavaDocs for the PdbSAXParser, I would not recommend that
anyone use it.   It's both an experimental (i.e. the actual SAX events are
subject to change without notice) and an early (i.e. buggy) version.

In principle, I could upload a more recent version (fewer bugs!) into the cvs.
But I'm not convinced we've got close enough to a final design to make it
sensible for people to actually use.
