--------------------------------
Summary: OASISCatalogManager silently swallows Exceptions in
getResolver()
Key: CXF-5681
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-5681
Project: CXF
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JAX-WS Runtime
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: John O'Hara
org.apache.cxf.catalog.OASISCatalogManager.getResolver() silently fails if any
exceptions are thrown during the try{} block.
https://github.com/apache/cxf/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/catalog/OASISCatalogManager.java#LC107
This makes resolving issues difficult as Exceptions that contain important
information are ignored.
For example, if org.apache.xml.resolver.CatalogManager is not found on the
classpath (as it is in an external library), a CNFE exception is swallowed and
calls to loadCatalogs() will fail to load catalogs bundled with an application.
As no errors/warnings are logged, it appears that the jax-ws-catalog.xml has
been loaded correctly.
IMHO, since there is already a logger defined in the OASISCatalogManager class,
there should be at least an WARN message logged for exceptions within the try{}
block to help resolve issues like CNFE exceptions.
