Very true, and my idea is to have a small utility that does the
"trick" that
Log4J does, i.e. fill in the stack, grab the second top element for
"where
was this detected" and the next element for "where was that called
from"...
Well, that would be really cool. I've had a similar interest also.
I wrote a small app. which works with stacktraceelement arrays to
dynamically generate or look up prepared error codes (Oracle like
messages) - also to see if existing records of similar stack traces
existed. I've always thought that end users see too many stack-traces
and that applications don't really gain by throwing away exception
information. The basic goal was to convert long stack traces into
meaningful error codes, which could be included in documentation, and
also to not lose information concerning what exceptions had been
thrown by the application's runtime history.
Let me know if you do something in this regard.
Cheers,
Nick
