Exceptions are a common way of handling errors in Java. This is exception is handled and its message is returned as an error saying the system was unable to parse the provided RSpec. I'm not sure what else should be done here.

Is it possible to identify for the user that the XML schema specified is not supported? That is, to differentiate between 'you have a typo in your RSpec' and 'we don't support that kind of RSpec'?

I'm not sure how to differentiate a typo in a document from schema non-compliance with the XML tools I have (aren't they the same thing?). I can simply reinforce the error message with 'Check GetVersion? for supported schemas'

Sorry, I didn't mean typo vs schema non-compliance. I meant typo or schema non compliance VS a schema/namespace which is not supported. That you should be able to tell.

But yes, that extra message probably would help.

Look at the last paragraph of http://jaxb.java.net/tutorial/section_3_3-Validation.html

Seems like a lot of effort for a small return...
