46 * Chained exception thrown when backing store fails. This exception is
47 * only thrown from methods that actually have to access the backing store,
48 * such as <code>clear(), keys(), childrenNames(), nodeExists(), removeNode(),
49 * flush(), sync(), exportNode(), exportSubTree()</code>; normal operations
50 * do not throw BackingStoreExceptions.
52 * <p>Note that although this class inherits the Serializable interface, an
53 * attempt to serialize will fail with a <code>NotSerializableException</code>.
