Hi Adrian,

I am investigating some bugs with bad FOP configurations..

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40288

In your opinion, on initialization if the FopFactory and FOUserAgent discover that they have bad configurations (e.g. malformed (base) urls, urls that reference non-existent content), should they :-

a) Catch exceptions (ConfigurationException) and log SEVERE errors and silently continue.

I personally prefer this, but would also agree with an intermediate solution, where the user can flip a switch on the FopFactory or the FOUserAgent to have them propagate the exception if it occurs... (analogous to strict or relaxed validation).


Just my 2 cents...

Cheers,

Andreas
