https://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/: Xerces2 is the next generation of high performance, fully compliant XML parsers in the Apache Xerces family. This new version of Xerces introduces the Xerces Native Interface (XNI), a complete framework for building parser components and configurations that is extremely modular and easy to program.
The Apache Xerces2 parser is the reference implementation of XNI but other parser components, configurations, and parsers can be written using the Xerces Native Interface. For complete design and implementation documents, refer to the XNI Manual.
Xerces2 is a fully conforming XML Schema 1.0 processor. A partial experimental implementation of the XML Schema 1.1 Structures and Datatypes Working Drafts (December 2009) and an experimental implementation of the XML Schema Definition Language (XSD): Component Designators (SCD) Candidate Recommendation (January 2010) are provided for evaluation. For more information, refer to the XML Schema page.
Xerces2 also provides a complete implementation of the Document Object Model Level 3 Core and Load/Save W3C Recommendations and provides a complete implementation of the XML Inclusions (XInclude) W3C Recommendation. It also provides support for OASIS XML Catalogs v1.1.
Xerces2 is able to parse documents written according to the XML 1.1 Recommendation, except that it does not yet provide an option to enable normalization checking as described in section 2.13 of this specification. It also handles namespaces according to the XML Namespaces 1.1 Recommendation, and will correctly serialize XML 1.1 documents if the DOM level 3 load/save APIs are in use.

An interface for handling errors. If the application is interested
in error notifications, then it can register an error handler object
that implements this interface with the parser configuration.

Reports a warning. Warnings are non-fatal and can be safely ignored

Params: - domain – The domain of the warning. The domain can be any
string but is suggested to be a valid URI. The

document pertaining to this warning.
- key – The warning key. This key can be any string and
is implementation dependent.
- exception – Exception.
Throws: - XNIException – Thrown to signal that the parser should stop
parsing the document.

public void error(String domain, String key,
XMLParseException exception) throws XNIException;
Report a fatal error. Fatal errors usually occur when the document
is not well-formed and signifies that the parser cannot continue
normal operation.
Note: The error handler should always
throw an XNIException from this method. This exception
can either be the same exception that is passed as a parameter to
the method or a new XNI exception object. If the registered error
handler fails to throw an exception, the continuing operation of
the parser is undetermined.
Params: - domain – The domain of the fatal error. The domain can be
any string but is suggested to be a valid URI. The
domain can be used to conveniently specify a web
site location of the relevant specification or
document pertaining to this fatal error.
- key – The fatal error key. This key can be any string
and is implementation dependent.
- exception – Exception.
Throws: - XNIException – Thrown to signal that the parser should stop
parsing the document.
