Class XMLException
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
- Direct Known Subclasses:
NoSuchAttributeException
,NoSuchChildException
,UnavailableCharacterException
,WellformednessException
The generic superclass for most runtime exceptions thrown in
nu.xom
. The general principle followed is that
anything that can normally be detected by testing such as
using spaces in an element name is a runtime exception.
Exceptions that depend on environmental conditions,
such as might occur when parsing an external file,
are checked exceptions, because these depend on variable input,
and thus all problems may not be detected during testing.
