23   * A special exception that tells the {@link ProtocolDecoder} can keep
24   * decoding even after this exception is thrown.
25   * <p>
26   * Once {@link ProtocolCodecFilter} catches any other type of exception
27   * than {@link RecoverableProtocolDecoderException}, it stops calling
28   * the {@link ProtocolDecoder#decode(org.apache.mina.core.session.IoSession,
29   *        org.apache.mina.core.buffer.IoBuffer, ProtocolDecoderOutput)}
30   * immediately and fires an <tt>exceptionCaught</tt> event.
31   * <p>
32   * On the other hand, if {@link RecoverableProtocolDecoderException} is thrown,
33   * it doesn't stop immediately but keeps calling the {@link ProtocolDecoder}
34   * as long as the position of the read buffer changes.
35   * <p>
36   * {@link RecoverableProtocolDecoderException} is useful for a robust
37   * {@link ProtocolDecoder} that can continue decoding even after any
38   * protocol violation.
