    019/**
    020 * <p>
    021 * An event class that is used for reporting errors that occurred while processing configuration properties.
    022 * </p>
    023 * <p>
    024 * Some configuration implementations (e.g. {@link org.apache.commons.configuration2.DatabaseConfiguration} or
    025 * {@link org.apache.commons.configuration2.JNDIConfiguration} use an underlying storage that can throw an exception on
    026 * each property access. In earlier versions of this library such exceptions were logged and then silently ignored. This
    027 * makes it impossible for a client to find out that something went wrong.
    028 * </p>
    029 * <p>
    030 * To give clients better control over the handling of errors that might occur while interacting with a configuration
    031 * object, a specialized error event type is introduced. Clients can register as listeners of this event type at a
    032 * configuration object and are then notified about all internal errors related to the source configuration object.
    033 * </p>
    034 * <p>
    035 * This class defines similar properties to the {@link ConfigurationEvent} class. This makes it possible to find out
    036 * which operation was performed on a configuration causing this error event. In addition, a {@code Throwable} object is
    037 * available representing the occurred error. Note that depending on the event type and the occurred exception not all
    038 * of the other properties (e.g. name of the affected property or its value) may be available.
    039 * </p>
    040 *
    041 * @since 1.4
    042 * @see ConfigurationEvent
