This module implements a SAX filter which adds line-numbers and column-numbers to errors generated by SAX handlers futher down the pipeline. I wrote this module so that XML::Validator::Schema could blame the correct line of XML for validation failures.
NOTE: This module requires a SAX parser which correctly supports the set_document_locator() call. At present there is just one, XML::SAX::ExpatXS. If you've got a number of XML::SAX parsers installed and you want to make sure XML::SAX::ExpatXS is used, do this:
$XML::SAX::ParserPackage = 'XML::SAX::ExpatXS';
If you use this filter with another SAX parser and it doesn't work please write the maintainer of that parser and suggest that they add support for set_document_locator()!
