## Native Extension Setup
The native extensions can be found in `ext/` and are divided into a C and Java
extension. These extensions are only used for the XML lexer built using Ragel.
The grammar for this lexer is shared between C and Java and can be found in
`ext/ragel/base_lexer.rl`.

this maintenance of this codebase is much easier. If one wants to change the
grammar they only have to do so in one place and they don't have to worry about
C and/or Java specific details.
For more details on calling Ruby methods from Ragel see the source
documentation in `ext/ragel/base_lexer.rl`.
