Class SAXException

Exception --+
            |
           SAXException

Known Subclasses:
ParserException

Encapsulate an XML error or warning. This class can contain basic error or warning information from either the XML parser or the application: you can subclass it to provide additional functionality, or to add localization. Note that although you will receive a SAXException as the argument to the handlers in the ErrorHandler interface, you are not actually required to throw the exception; instead, you can simply read the information in it.
