hi
keith,
which
exceptions did you catch? AFAIK NullPointerException and RuntimeException are
unchecked exceptions, so they most probably inhreit from Throwable not from
Exception. please make sure that you are catching those Throwables (for
debugging purposes).
other
ways, well... I saw that you already have debug log statements; you can decorate
the other methods (maybe even at multiple places; kind of checkpoints) with
debug log statements. then after the exception(s) are thrown you should be able
to estimate from the logs where approximately the exception is thrown in your
code.
but a
better alternative maybe to just try to debug the transformer via jdb or your
favourite IDE debugger; start tomcat (I assume tomcat as your servlet container)
in debug/jpda mode, attach to that debug session with your debugger, set
breakpoints in your transformer source (maybe do this as first step) and then
trigger a transformation so your transformer gets called (setup details etc. may
vary). then you should be able to quickly find the bug.

Betreff: RE: Problem writing a BetwixtTransformerHi Marco,I tried putting try / catch blocks round all of the code in the methods I have overridden but no exceptions were caught.Do you suggest any other ways to debug a transformer?Keith.
