----------------------------------------
Summary: Standardize InfosetInputter and InfosetOutputter error
handling
Key: DAFFODIL-2721
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2721
Project: Daffodil
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Steve Lawrence
The API for InfosetInputetr and InfosetOutputter is not well defined. In the
InfosetOutputter API we have deprecated the use of the boolean return values,
but have not changed the actual API.
In both cases, implementations are expected to throw exceptions to report
errors.
In the InfosetOutputter, we catch all Exceptions and convert them to an SDE.
In the InfosetInputter catches various kinds of exceptions based on
InvalidInfosetExcpetion, but only documents
NonTextFoundInSimpleContentException. It's not clear if try/catch'es wrap all
calls to the InfosetInputter.
We should double check that everything is correct. We may also want to create a
specific exception for both the inputter and outputter that are consistent in
naming (e.g. InfosetInputterException/InfosetOutputterException) and use these
correctly and consistently.
