> My test cases try an XML 1.2 and 2.0 document to make sure they are correctly
> reported as malformed (e.g. <?xml version='1.2'?><root/>). Xerces does correctly
> report these as malformed. However, when it does so it presents the following
> error message on the console:
> [Fatal Error] :1:20: XML version "2.0" is not supported, only XML 1.0 is supported.
> [Fatal Error] :1:20: XML version "1.2" is not supported, only XML 1.0 is supported.
> Two problems with this:
> 1.  It should now read "only XML 1.0 and 1.1 are supported"
> 2. It shouldn't be printing anything on the console at all. Yes, it should
> report the error, but only to the application's ErrorHandler and relevant catch
> blocks. Only if the application fails to catch the exception should anything be
> printed on the console. Class libraries such as Xerces should not go behind the
> application's back to communicate directly with the user.
