my short answer is: digester is open source - use it any way you want!
my longer answer is: i can't think of any major issues that you'll have using XmlLoadException in that way. if you want to follow sun's javadoc guidelines you might want to add a @throws tag.
Thanks Robert. My concern arose from the fact that, when I investigated the classes that extend java.lang.Exception, there are a ton of CORBA-specific or JNDI-specific (etc) Exceptions and I wondered if we're all supposed to make custom exceptions like this all the time.
this is a concern - but i didn't really want to get into the issue of the 'right' exception handling strategy. there are different schools of thought about the right way to do exception handling. IMHO this issue can get a little religious.
