Better logging when developer specifies a non existent source directory
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: EXTSCRIPT-115
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EXTSCRIPT-115
Project: MyFaces Extensions Scripting
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 1.0-Beta-2
Reporter: Jan-Kees van Andel
Assignee: Werner Punz
When I make a typo in a source directory, like:
D:/dev/work/idea9/parleys/web-html5/src/main/jav (notice the missing 'a' at the
end)
I don't get a message suggesting I made an error, but ExtScript fails silently
by not reloading the classes in this directory.
There is a javac message in the log:
INFO: [EXT-SCRITPING] starting class dependency scan
18-apr-2010 16:53:24
org.apache.myfaces.extensions.scripting.loaders.java.jsr199.JSR199Compiler
compile
INFO: [EXT-SCRIPTING] Doing a full recompile
javacTask: no source files
Usage: javacTask <options> <source files>
use -help for a list of possible options
But it's easy to miss it because MyFaces and other frameworks also emit a lot
of logging. Something heavier (ERROR level or maybe an initializer exception)
might be better, so the user won't get confused/angry.
I think such a check is even more appropriate because file paths in Java are
always error-prone (I always make mistakes with paths)...
