http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37062 Summary: More helpful message when exceptions are raised on JSPs Product: Tomcat 5 Version: Unknown Platform: All URL: http://www.tfenne.com/jasper/ OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: Jasper AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The JasperException that is thrown whenever an exception is thrown either directly on a JSP or by code invoked directly or indirectly from the JSP only ever contains the line number of the line in the generated java servlet file. This means that developers have to trawl through the Tomcat working directory, dig up the generated java file, then compare the generated line against their JSP to figure out where the error originated from. Several other containers, WebLogic and Resin to mention but two, provide more information; crucially the line number in the JSP and in WebLogic's case a fragment of the JSP showing the error in context. I have assembled a patch (which I will attach here) that provides similar functionality in Tomcat. The diff is against SVN as of the date of submitting this bug. The full modified source files are available for download at the URL attached to this bug, should the patch be out of date by the time it is processed. I find this is a huge productivity booster for me, and my post to the Tomcat user mailing list elicited replies asking for the source code *now*. I hope this can find it's way into the next build(s) of Tomcat. I've tested it against 5.5.9 and 5.5.12, but not the 5.0 releases. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
