/**
* A basic event handler interface for validation errors.
*
*
* If an application needs to implement customized event handling, it must
* implement this interface and then register it with either the
* {@link Unmarshaller#setEventHandler(ValidationEventHandler) Unmarshaller},
* the {@link Validator#setEventHandler(ValidationEventHandler) Validator}, or
* the {@link Marshaller#setEventHandler(ValidationEventHandler) Marshaller}.
* The JAXB Provider will then report validation errors and warnings encountered
* during the unmarshal, marshal, and validate operations to these event
* handlers.
*
*
* If the {@code handleEvent} method throws an unchecked runtime exception,
* the JAXB Provider must treat that as if the method returned false, effectively
* terminating whatever operation was in progress at the time (unmarshal,
* validate, or marshal).
*
*
* Modifying the Java content tree within your event handler is undefined
* by the specification and may result in unexpected behaviour.
*
*
* Failing to return false from the {@code handleEvent} method after
* encountering a fatal error is undefined by the specification and may result
* in unexpected behavior.
*

* Default Event Handler
