Please add specific Jira issues for these... I know there's some exception handling issues, but I never remember where...

It's definitely discourages strong > java exception contracts in many places. Is it intentional, > or it's just happened to be that way? > > Example - I know that somewhere in my code OgnlException > could occur. However it's intercepted by > com.opensymphony.xwork.util.CompoundRootAccessor.setProperty() > which kindly wraps it in RuntimeException. The funny part is > that it actually declares to throw OgnlException. Xwork's > OgnlStack wrapper also ignores any OgnlException - of course > it doesn't matter cause they're rewrapped underneath. > > IMHO it's weak part of xwork/webwork. It results in code that > it's hard to debug. Once there is > java.lang.NumberFormatExceptions that tells everything of > what happened, then it's wrapped in OgnlException - good > enough cause it's linked to the causing exception. And > finally - there is a meaningless RuntimeException. > > In xwork RuntimeException is used 5 times. Same stats in > webwork. I would say it makes sense in no place. > > -- Mike > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek > Welcome to geek heaven. > http://thinkgeek.com/sf > _______________________________________________ > Opensymphony-webwork mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/opensymphony-webwork > ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Opensymphony-webwork mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/opensymphony-webwork
