Hi,

Yes you are right, as am new to XML, I realized that there is a confusion
between Validity Errors and well-formedness Errors.
For Validation Errors no Exception was thrown out by our ErrorHandler
Implementation, and hence the parsing continued.
Only for Fatal Errors i.e. well-formedness Errors it used to stop parsing.

Now we rethrow the Exception for Validity Errors, hence the parsing halts.

Thank you very much for the reply !

Thanks,
Khyati

That's very strange and shouldn't happen. Does parsing continue, or does
parsing stop with no exception? Are you sure you aren't confusing
well-formedness and validity errors? They aren't the same, and don't
have the same effect.

If nothing else, you could always just rethrow the exception from your
error handler. You have to do this for validity errors. I don't think
you should have to do it for well-formedness errors though, but maybe
that's changed. Do you have a reproducible test case?
