## Class XMLErrorReporter

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.xerces.impl.XMLErrorReporter

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLComponent

      public class XMLErrorReporter
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLComponent

  This class is a common element of all parser configurations and is used to report errors that occur. This component can be queried by parser components from the component manager using the following property ID:

         http://apache.org/xml/properties/internal/error-reporter

  Errors are separated into domains that categorize a class of errors. In a parser configuration, the parser would register a `MessageFormatter` for each domain that is capable of localizing error messages and formatting them based on information about the error. Any parser component can invent new error domains and register additional message formatters to localize messages in those domains.

  This component requires the following features and properties from the component manager that uses it:

  - http://apache.org/xml/properties/internal/error-handler

  This component can use the following features and properties but they are not required:

  - http://apache.org/xml/features/continue-after-fatal-error

- - ### Field Detail

    - #### SEVERITY_WARNING

          public static final short SEVERITY_WARNING

      Severity: warning. Warnings represent informational messages only that should not be considered serious enough to stop parsing or indicate an error in the document's validity.
      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

    - #### SEVERITY_ERROR

          public static final short SEVERITY_ERROR

      Severity: error. Common causes of errors are document structure and/or content that that does not conform to the grammar rules specified for the document. These are typically validation errors.
      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

    - #### SEVERITY_FATAL_ERROR

          public static final short SEVERITY_FATAL_ERROR

      Severity: fatal error. Fatal errors are errors in the syntax of the XML document or invalid byte sequences for a given encoding. The XML 1.0 Specification mandates that errors of this type are not recoverable.

      Note: The parser does have a "continue after fatal error" feature but it should be used with extreme caution and care.

      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

    - #### CONTINUE_AFTER_FATAL_ERROR

          protected static final java.lang.String CONTINUE_AFTER_FATAL_ERROR

      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

      Continue after fatal error feature.

    - #### fDefaultErrorHandler

          protected org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLErrorHandler fDefaultErrorHandler

      Default error handler. This error handler is only used in the absence of a registered error handler so that errors are not "swallowed" silently. This is one of the most common "problems" reported by users of the parser.
