 * <p>If the application needs to pass through other types of
 * exceptions, it must wrap those exceptions in a SAXException
 * or an exception derived from a SAXException.</p>
 *
 * <p>If the parser or application needs to include information about a
 * specific location in an XML document, it should use the
 * {@link org.xml.sax.SAXParseException SAXParseException} subclass.</p>
