Review Comment:
   You've moved SAXInfosetEvent from api/DFDLParserUnparser.scala to 
infoset/SAXInfosetInputter.scala, but these scaladocs still mention 
SAXInfosetEvent.  Both DaffodilUnparseErrorSAXException and 
DaffodilUnhandledSAXException just extend SAXException, so their own names are 
the only extra info they communicate to users.  It looks like Daffodil's apis 
(runtime1's api, daffodil-japi, daffodil-sapi) want to capture SAXException and 
rethrow it as either DaffodilUnparseErrorSAXException or 
DaffodilUnhandledSAXException.  I'm not sure why it's so important that 
Daffodil users receive instances of these exceptions instead of generic 
SAXException instances, so you might want to make the scaladocs explain why 
these exceptions matter to users rather than mention which internal Daffodil 
code uses these exceptions.

 /**
- * DaffodilUnparseContentHandler produces SAXInfosetEvent objects for the 
SAXInfosetInputter to
- * consume and convert to events that the Dataprocessor unparse can use. The 
SAXInfosetEvent object
- * is built from information that is passed to the ContentHandler from an 
XMLReader parser. In
- * order to receive the uri and prefix information from the XMLReader, the 
XMLReader must have
- * support for XML Namespaces
+ * Handle and unparse XMLReader SAX events using a provided DataProcessor and
+ * OutputChannel
  *
- * This class, together with the SAXInfosetInputter, uses coroutines to ensure 
that a batch of events
- * (based on the tunable saxUnparseEventBatchSize) can be passed from the 
former to the latter.
- * The following is the general process:
+ * Note: XMLReaders using this as their ContentHandler must have support for 
XML
+ * namespaces so that we provided namespace URI and prefix information that 
Daffodil
+ * requires to unparse.
  *
- * - an external call is made to parse an XML Document
- * - this class receives a StartDocument call, which is the first 
SAXInfosetEvent that should be
- * sent to the SAXInfosetInputter. That event is put onto an array of 
SAXInfosetEvents of size the
- * saxUnparseEventBatchSize tunable. Once the array is full, it is put on the 
inputter's queue,
- * this thread is paused, and that inputter's thread is run
- * - when the SAXInfosetInputter is done processing that batch and is ready 
for a new batch, it
- * sends a 1 element array with the last completed event via the coroutine 
system, which loads it on
- * the contentHandler's queue, which restarts this thread and pauses that one. 
In the expected case,
- * the single element array will contain no new information until the unparse 
complete. In the case of
- * an unexpected error though, it will contain error information
- * - this process continues until the EndDocument SAXInfosetEvent is loaded 
into the batch.
- * Once that SAXInfosetEvent is processed by the SAXInfosetInputter, it 
signals the end of batched
- * events coming from the contentHandler. This ends the unparseProcess and 
returns the event with
- * the unparseResult and/or any error
- * information
+ * The SAX ContentHandler API is push-based, but the Daffodil InfosetInputter 
unparse
+ * API is pull-based, so these two API's are at odds with one another. To link 
the
+ * two, we create two classes that implement a coroutine-like API to 
communicate and
+ * ensure that the push and pull sides of the two APIs never run at the same 
time
+ * (see Coroutine.scala for implementation details). The main coroutine or 
"event
+ * queuer" is this DaffodilUnparseContentHandler and runs on the same thread 
as an
+ * XMLReader to handle and batch SAX events. The worker coroutine or "event 
puller" is
+ * an instance of the SAXInfosetInputter which calls the actual unparse() 
function to
+ * query these batched SAX events and unparse data.
  *
- * @param dp dataprocessor object that will be used to call the parse
- * @param output outputChannel of choice where the unparsed data is stored
+ * Below is a description of how this class is used and they communicate to 
unparse
+ * using the SAX XMLReader API:
+ *
+ * 1. A DaffodilUnparseContentHandler instance is created, which initializes a
+ *    SAXInfosetInputter instance.
+ *
+ * 2. An XMLReader instance is created and configured to use the
+ *    DaffodilUnparseContentHandler to handle its SAX events.
+ *
+ * 3. The DaffodilUnparseContentHandler handles events from the XMLReader, 
gathers
+ *    the necessary information from those events, and fills out an array of
+ *    SAXInfosetEvent objects, called a "batch".
+ *
+ * 4. When a full batch has been gathered, or an endDocument() event is 
handled, the
+ *    DaffodilUnparseContentHandler calls resume() to pause execution and 
start the
+ *    SAXInfosetInputter coroutine, sending it the batch of events.
+ *
+ * 5. Since this is the first time the SAXInfosetInputter has been given 
control, its
+ *    coroutine Thread is started and its run() function called. This calls
+ *    waitResume() to receive the first batch of events. It then calls the
+ *    DataProcessor unparse() function to begin the unparse.
+ *
+ * 6. The SAXInfosetInputter functions are called by the unparse, which reads 
the
+ *    batched events and provides the necessary information to unparse the 
infoset.
+ *    Once the SAXInfosetInputter has unparsed all batched events and needs a 
new
+ *    event in the next() function, it calls resume() to pause execution and 
resume
+ *    the DaffodilUnparseContentHandler coroutine, sending it Nope to signify 
it
+ *    needs more events.
+ *
+ * 7. The DaffodilUnparseContentHandler resumes and again continues to handle 
SAX
+ *    events and fill out the batched events array until it is full or 
endDocument()
+ *    is handled, at which point it calls resume() to pause and send the new 
batch of
+ *    events to the SAXInfosetInputter where it resumes control.
+ *
+ * 8. Steps 6 and 7 repeat until the SAXInfosetInputter signals back to the
+ *    DaffodilUnparseContentHandler that it is complete calling resumeFinal() 
and
+ *    sending a One object containing either an UnparseResult or an Exception. 
At
+ *    this point, the SAXInfosetInputter is complete and provide control back 
to the
+ *    DaffodilUnparseContentHandler--the SAXInfosetInputter coroutine is done.
+ *
+ * 9. The DaffodilUnparseContentHandler resumes, recieves and examines the 
result
+ *    from the SAXInfosetInputter, and either makes the UnparseResult 
available to
+ *    the XMLReader or throws a SAXException if there was an error.
+ *
+ * @param dp DataProcessor object that will be used to start the unparse
+ * @param output OutputChannel of where the unparsed data is written

Review Comment:
   Just making another observation.  This line changes 
DaffodilUnparseContentHandler from MainCoroutine[Array[SAXInfosetEvent]] to 
MainCoroutine[Maybe[Either[Exception, DFDL.UnparseResult]]].  
SAXInfosetInputter is still Coroutine[Array[SAXInfosetEvent]].  What this means 
is that a pair of coroutines can send data to each other without the data 
having to be the same type on both ends:
   
   ```scala
       // dataToReceive and dataToSend can be different types!
       val dataToReceive = this.resume(otherCoroutine, dataToSend)
   ```
   
   This is valuable to know - maybe worth adding to a comment somewhere.

   This is the place that might send a programmer to the wrong place 
(api.DFDL.DaffodilUnparseContentHandler instead of 
processors.DaffodilUnparseContentHandler).

Review Comment:
   I'm not very happy that Daffodil has both a 
DFDL.DaffodilUnparseContentHandler trait and a 
processors.DaffodilUnparseContentHandler class. I'm especially not happy that 
this DFDL.DaffodilUnparseContentHandler trait has no scaladocs to tell 
programmers that the real work is done in the 
processors.DaffodilUnparseContentHandler class. SAXInfosetInputter's scaladocs 
tells programmers to see DaffodilUnparseContentHandler for a detailed 
description of how the DaffodilUnparseContentHandler and SAXInfosetInputter 
classes interact.  I fear a programmer might come here by mistake and get 
puzzled why this DaffodilUnparseContentHandler doesn't have any scaladocs or 
real code.  If we really need both the trait and the class (do we really need 
both?), the trait needs its own scaladocs.
   
   I noticed that one half of grep -w ContentHandler's hits have an import 
org.xml.sax.ContentHandler while the other half don't bother to import 
ContentHandler. I'm just mentioning that fact; I don't have a strong opinion 
whether ContentHandler should be imported or qualified although it was your 
change at line 233 using SAXException instead of org.xml.sax.SAXException which 
drew my eye to line 224 still using org.xml.sax.ContentHandler.

Review Comment:
   After this line changing DFDL.DaffodilUnparseContentHandler to 
DaffodilUnparseContentHandler, I believe there is only one place left in the 
codebase which uses DFDL.DaffodilUnparseContentHandler in an API-visible place 
(DataProcessor's newContentHandlerInstance method):
   
   ```rg
   
daffodil-runtime1/src/main/scala/org/apache/daffodil/processors/DataProcessor.scala
   257:  override def newContentHandlerInstance(output: DFDL.Output): 
DFDL.DaffodilUnparseContentHandler =
   ```
   
   When Mike and I wrote the C code generator (runtime2), we decided we didn't 
want or need to implement all of DFDL.DataProcessor so we split it into 
DFDL.DataProcessorBase and DFDL.DataProcessor.  Runtime2DataProcessor didn't 
need newContentHandlerInstance at all.  Now, speaking from my experience 
working on a second code generator and integrating it into Daffodil, I would 
say we didn't even need Runtime2DataProcessor either.  We needed only 
Runtime2TDMLDFDLProcessor to run TDML tests with DaffodilC and we could have 
put all of Runtime2DataProcessor's code in Runtime2TDMLDFDLProcessor instead of 
Runtime2DataProcessor.  I think the only parts of Daffodil we need to add or 
override for another code generator are another language in the "daffodil 
generate \<language\>" CLI, another new generator backend, and another 
Daffodill\<Language\>TDMLDFDLProcessor.
   
   No real point here, just making some observations such as that there doesn't 
seem to be any motivation for a programmer to take advantage of Daffodil's 
extensible DFDL.* API to replace Compiler, DataProcessor, 
DaffodilUnparseContentHandler, etc. (it's hard to know that except in hindsight 
and new use cases still might appear, though).
