Hello Martin,
thanks for the advise and I looked at it, however, I am not sure how to solve
my original idea here.
I can swallow any error thats RuntimeException in onException in
IRequestCycleListener, but this leads not to the rest of the page magically
working, does it?
I mean I can add a new RequestCycleListener with
@Override
public IRequestHandler onException(RequestCycle cycle, Exception ex) {
..
if(ex instanceof RuntimeException) {
//swallow it
return null;
}
in it. But as soon as we got a e.g.:
throw new RuntimeException("test");
anywhere in the constructor/onInit of any component the error is again 500, with
ERROR [org.apache.wicket.DefaultExceptionMapper] Unexpected error occurred
java.lang.RuntimeException: test
[...]
behind it.
My idea is that the component - and only that single component - that fails
gets "blanked" out as it is not existing while the rest of the page would work
regular.
Or did I missunderstand anything here?
Best,
KB
