Using Internet File System (iFS) to Build XML Applications, 6 of 11

## Using iFS Custom Parsers

If parsing non-XML documents, such as .doc or .xls documents, or if you have defined a custom type, such as .vcf for Vcards, you must write a custom parser to create database objects from these documents. To create a custom parser, you can either subclass an existing iFS parser or create a custom class from scratch, implementing the `oracle.ifs.beans.parsers.Parser` interface.
