To provide customized error handling, implement this interface and
use the setErrorListener method to register an instance of the implmentation
with the Transformer. The Transformer then reports all errors and warnings through this interface.
If an application does not
register an ErrorListener, errors are reported to System.err.
For transformation errors, a Transformer must use this interface
instead of throwing an exception: it is up to the application
to decide whether to throw an exception for different types of
errors and warnings. Note however that the Transformer is not required
to continue with the transformation after a call to fatalError.
Transformers may use this mechanism to report XML parsing errors
as well as transformation errors.
Method Summary
void
Receive notification of a recoverable error.
void
Receive notification of a non-recoverable error.
void
Receive notification of a warning.
Method Detail
warning
Receive notification of a warning.
Transformers can use this method to report conditions that
are not errors or fatal errors. The default behaviour is to
take no action.
After invoking this method, the Transformer must continue with
the transformation. It should still be possible for the
application to process the document through to the end.
Parameters:
exception - The warning information encapsulated in a
error
Receive notification of a recoverable error.
The transformer must continue to try and provide normal transformation
after invoking this method. It should still be possible for the
application to process the document through to the end if no other errors
are encountered.
Parameters:
exception - The error information encapsulated in a
fatalError
Receive notification of a non-recoverable error.
The transformer must continue to try and provide normal transformation
after invoking this method. It should still be possible for the
application to process the document through to the end if no other errors
are encountered, but there is no guarantee that the output will be
useable.
Parameters:
exception - The error information encapsulated in a
