    - #### getParser

          public static LinkExtractorParser getParser(String parserClassName)
                                               throws LinkExtractorParseException

      Parameters:
        `parserClassName` - name of the class that should be used to create new parsers
      Returns:
        a possibly cached instance of the wanted `LinkExtractorParser`
      Throws:
        `LinkExtractorParseException` - when a new instance could not be instantiated

    - #### isReusable

          public boolean isReusable()

      Parsers should over-ride this method if the parser class is re-usable, in which case the class will be cached for the next getParser() call.
      Specified by:
        `isReusable` in interface `LinkExtractorParser`
      Returns:
        `true` if the Parser is reusable
