errors in text filters can cause indexing to fail without warning the client
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JCR-299
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-299
Project: Jackrabbit
Type: Bug
Components: query
Versions: 1.0
Reporter: Brian Moseley
i've opened this issue to track the discussion at
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.jackrabbit.devel/5086>. briefly,
exceptions thrown by text filters are logged and swallowed by jackrabbit;
there's no way for a text filter to signal to the jcr client that indexing
failed.
some solutions have been proposed, including throwing an unchecked exception,
which doesn't allow jackrabbit to maintain transactional integrity, and giving
filters veto power over the observed repository operation. depending on the
difficulty of the solution that is eventually determined to be correct, it may
be sufficient for 1.0 to document the issue and perhaps improve the
warning/error logging.
