[jdom-interest] Validation error messages

[Kevin E. Allen]

   I'm currently writing an editor which overlays an XML configuration
file.  For maximum flexibility in the tool (I'm departing the project
soon), I'm making it work dynamically from the XML Schema.

   I have a method in place which checks for validation by writing to a
byte array stream, then reading it back in with a SAXBuilder.  The error
messages given by the SAXBuilder are not terribly user-friendly, however.

   Has anyone done any sort of conversion of these messages to something an
average non-XML-aware user might be able to comprehend?

Thanks,
