  44  * <p>If a SAX application needs to implement customized error
  45  * handling, it must implement this interface and then register an
  46  * instance with the XML reader using the
  47  * {@link org.xml.sax.XMLReader#setErrorHandler setErrorHandler}
  48  * method.  The parser will then report all errors and warnings
  49  * through this interface.</p>
  50  *
  51  * <p><strong>WARNING:</strong> If an application does <em>not</em>
  52  * register an ErrorHandler, XML parsing errors will go unreported,
  53  * except that <em>SAXParseException</em>s will be thrown for fatal errors.
  54  * In order to detect validity errors, an ErrorHandler that does something
  55  * with {@link #error error()} calls must be registered.</p>
  56  *
  57  * <p>For XML processing errors, a SAX driver must use this interface
  58  * in preference to throwing an exception: it is up to the application
  59  * to decide whether to throw an exception for different types of
  60  * errors and warnings.  Note, however, that there is no requirement that
  61  * the parser continue to report additional errors after a call to
  62  * {@link #fatalError fatalError}.  In other words, a SAX driver class
  63  * may throw an exception after reporting any fatalError.
