/// If a SAX application needs to implement customized error handling, it must

/// warnings through this interface.
///
/// WARNING: If an application does not register an ErrorHandler, XML parsing errors
/// will go unreported, except that SAXParseExceptions will be thrown for fatal errors.
/// In order to detect validity errors, an ErrorHandler that does something with error()
/// calls must be registered.
///
/// For XML processing errors, a SAX driver must use this interface in preference to
/// 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 there is no
/// requirement that the parser continue to report additional errors after a call to
/// fatalError. In other words, a SAX driver class may throw an exception after reporting
/// any fatalError. Also parsers may throw appropriate exceptions for non-XML errors. For
/// example, XMLReader::parse() would throw an IOException for errors accessing entities or
/// the document.

/// The SAX parser must continue to provide normal parsing events after invoking this
