+Error handling
+==============
+
+Errors during parsing or analysis are represented using the `PhpParser\Error` exception class. In addition to an error
+message, an error can also store additional information about the location the error occurred at.
+
+How much location information is available depends on the origin of the error and how many lexer attributes have been
+enabled. At a minimum the start line of the error is usually available.
+
+Column information
+------------------
+
+In order to receive information about not only the line, but also the column span an error occurred at, the file
+position attributes in the lexer need to be enabled:
+
+```php
+$lexer = new PhpParser\Lexer(array(
+    'usedAttributes' => array('comments', 'startLine', 'endLine', 'startFilePos', 'endFilePos'),
+));
+$parser = (new PhpParser\ParserFactory)->create(PhpParser\ParserFactory::PREFER_PHP7, $lexer);
+
+try {
+    $stmts = $parser->parse($code);
+    // ...
+} catch (PhpParser\Error $e) {
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+Before using column information its availability needs to be checked with `$e->hasColumnInfo()`, as the precise
+location of an error cannot always be determined. The methods for retrieving column information also have to be passed
+the source code of the parsed file. An example for printing an error:
+
+```php
+if ($e->hasColumnInfo()) {
+    echo $e->getRawMessage() . ' from ' . $e->getStartLine() . ':' . $e->getStartColumn($code)
+        . ' to ' . $e->getEndLine() . ':' . $e->getEndColumn($code);
+    // or:
+    echo $e->getMessageWithColumnInfo();
+} else {
+    echo $e->getMessage();
+}
+```
+
+Both line numbers and column numbers are 1-based. EOF errors will be located at the position one past the end of the
+file.
+
+Error recovery
+--------------
+
+The error behavior of the parser (and other components) is controlled by an `ErrorHandler`. Whenever an error is
+encountered, `ErrorHandler::handleError()` is invoked. The default error handling strategy is `ErrorHandler\Throwing`,
+which will immediately throw when an error is encountered.
+
+To instead collect all encountered errors into an array, while trying to continue parsing the rest of the source code,
+an instance of `ErrorHandler\Collecting` can be passed to the `Parser::parse()` method. A usage example:
+
+```php
+$parser = (new PhpParser\ParserFactory)->create(PhpParser\ParserFactory::ONLY_PHP7);
+$errorHandler = new PhpParser\ErrorHandler\Collecting;
+
+$stmts = $parser->parse($code, $errorHandler);
+
+if ($errorHandler->hasErrors()) {
+    foreach ($errorHandler->getErrors() as $error) {
+        // $error is an ordinary PhpParser\Error
+    }
+}
+
+if (null !== $stmts) {
+    // $stmts is a best-effort partial AST
+}
+```
+
+The `NameResolver` visitor also accepts an `ErrorHandler` as a constructor argument.
