Imports
org.springframework.core.io.Resource, org.springframework.lang.Nullable, org.springframework.util.Assert
Class that models an arbitrary location in a resource.

Typically used to track the location of problematic or erroneous metadata in XML configuration files. For example, a source location might be 'The bean defined on line 76 of beans.properties has an invalid Class'; another source might be the actual DOM Element from a parsed XML org.w3c.dom.Document; or the source object might simply be null.
