SFTPRepository.list(String) hides exceptions
--------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-751
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-751
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-beta-1, 2.0.0-beta-2
Reporter: Adrian Sandor
With an sftp repository, if any connection or authentication problem happens,
the error is hidden and the code behaves as if the action succeeded but nothing
was found. This makes it very hard to identify the problem and fix the
configuration.
I tracked the issue to the list method in SFTPRepository, where I found:
catch (Exception e) {
// silent fail, return null listing
}
I would change the code to something like this:
catch (SftpException e) {
IOException ioe = new IOException();
ioe.initCause(e);
throw ioe;
}
so any exception will be thrown as an IOException.
I'm sure there are other options too.
