29 * A basic event handler interface for validation errors.
30 *
31 * <p>
32 * If an application needs to implement customized event handling, it must
33 * implement this interface and then register it with either the
34 * {@link Unmarshaller#setEventHandler(ValidationEventHandler) Unmarshaller},
35 * the {@link Validator#setEventHandler(ValidationEventHandler) Validator}, or
36 * the {@link Marshaller#setEventHandler(ValidationEventHandler) Marshaller}.
37 * The JAXB Provider will then report validation errors and warnings encountered
38 * during the unmarshal, marshal, and validate operations to these event
39 * handlers.
40 *
41 * <p>
42 * If the <tt>handleEvent</tt> method throws an unchecked runtime exception,
43 * the JAXB Provider must treat that as if the method returned false, effectively
44 * terminating whatever operation was in progress at the time (unmarshal,
45 * validate, or marshal).
46 *
47 * <p>
48 * Modifying the Java content tree within your event handler is undefined
49 * by the specification and may result in unexpected behaviour.
50 *
51 * <p>
52 * Failing to return false from the <tt>handleEvent</tt> method after
53 * encountering a fatal error is undefined by the specification and may result
54 * in unexpected behavior.
