/**
* Interface that specifies additional access methods for accessing
* full location information of an input location within a stream reader.
* Access interface may be directly implemented by the reader, or by
* another (reusable or per-call-instantiated) helper object.
*
* Note: instances of LocationInfo are only guaranteed to persist as long
* as the (stream) reader points to the current element (whatever it is).
* After next call to streamReader.next, it it possible that
* the previously accessed LocationInfo points to the old information, new
* information, or may even contain just garbage. That is, for each new
* event, getLocationInfo should be called separately.
