public class ContentHandler

getContent(InputStream, URL): Given an input stream positioned at the beginning of the representation of an object, read that stream and recreate the object from it
getItem(InputStream, URL): Given an input stream positioned at the beginning of the representation of an object, read that stream and create a DisplayItem that contains the object.
