Class ErrorInfo.BadAttribute

Enclosing Class:
ErrorInfo

public static class ErrorInfo.BadAttribute
extends ErrorInfo.ElementErrorInfo

Bad attribute.

This is an error when the attribute name is wrong, or the attribute value is wrong. For example:

  1. When MSV sees an unexpected attribute name:
    
     <img hreeef="logo.gif"/>
     
     
     
  2. When an attribute value does not match the specified datatype. For example, the following document causes this error if the "width" attribute is specified as the int type.
    
     <img href="logo.gif" width="twenty four pixels"/>
     

This error is reported in the startElement callback.

Currently, the application cannot easily distinguish whether this error is caused by an invalid attribute value, or invalid attribute name. It is also non-trivial for MSV to detect this difference correctly. But there maybe applications to which this difference is important. I welcome any comments on this issue.
