Guillaume Nodet resolved GERONIMO-6509. --------------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed > XMLStreamException not calling "super(th)" in constructors > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GERONIMO-6509 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-6509 > Project: Geronimo > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: public(Regular issues) > Components: specs > Reporter: Daniel Kulp > Assignee: Guillaume Nodet > > The XMLStreamException in spec stax-api 1.2 is not calling the super(th) or > super(msg, th) for the constructors that take a throwable. There are two > problems this causes: > 1) The "cause" is never set so the exception.getCause() always returns null > and potentially important information in the cause is discarded. > 2) For the super(th) one, no message is set at all. Thus, all information > that could be useful is lost unless I specifically cast the exception to an > XMLStreamException and call the getNestedException(). Any generic exception > handling mechanism would not be able to provide a useful error message. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
