## Member Enumeration Documentation

## ErrorSeverity

enum DOMError::ErrorSeverity

The severity of the error described by the `DOMError`.

`DOM_SEVERITY_ERROR:` The severity of the error described by the `DOMError` is error. A DOM_SEVERITY_ERROR may not cause the processing to stop if the error can be recovered, unless `DOMErrorHandler::handleError()` returns false.

`DOM_SEVERITY_FATAL_ERROR` The severity of the error described by the `DOMError` is fatal error. A DOM_SEVERITY_FATAL_ERROR will cause the normal processing to stop. The return value of `DOMErrorHandler::handleError()` is ignored unless the implementation chooses to continue, in which case the behavior becomes undefined.

`DOM_SEVERITY_WARNING` The severity of the error described by the `DOMError` is warning. A DOM_SEVERITY_WARNING will not cause the processing to stop, unless `DOMErrorHandler::handleError()` returns false.

## ~DOMError()

virtual DOMError::~DOMError | ( |  | ) |

virtual

Destructor.

## getLocation()

virtual DOMLocator* DOMError::getLocation | ( |  | ) | const

pure virtual

Get the location of the error.

pure virtual

Get the message describing the error that occured.

## getRelatedData()

virtual void* DOMError::getRelatedData | ( |  | ) | const

pure virtual

Since
  DOM Level 3

## getRelatedException()

virtual void* DOMError::getRelatedException | ( |  | ) | const

pure virtual

## getSeverity()

virtual ErrorSeverity DOMError::getSeverity | ( |  | ) | const

pure virtual

## getType()

virtual const XMLCh* DOMError::getType | ( |  | ) | const

pure virtual

A `XMLCh*` indicating which related data is expected in relatedData.

Users should refer to the specification of the error in order to find its `XMLCh*` type and relatedData definitions if any.

Note: As an example, `DOMDocument::normalizeDocument()` does generate warnings when the "split-cdata-sections" parameter is in use. Therefore, the method generates a DOM_SEVERITY_WARNING with type "cdata-sections-splitted" and the first `DOMCDATASection` node in document order resulting from the split is returned by the relatedData attribute.
