             Summary: Sling Models: Do not swallow PostConstruct exceptions
                 Key: SLING-5389
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5389
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Extensions
    Affects Versions: Sling Models Impl 1.2.4
            Reporter: Stefan Seifert
             Fix For: Sling Models Impl 1.2.6


SLING-4161 introduced a special handling for postconstruct errors (in 
ModelAdapterFactory):
{code:java}
    public <AdapterType> AdapterType getAdapter(Object adaptable, 
Class<AdapterType> type) {
        Result<AdapterType> result = internalCreateModel(adaptable, type);
        if (!result.wasSuccessfull()) {
            // treat post-construct and validation exceptions differently, 
because they are sometimes used for flow-control or validation purposes
            if (result.getThrowable() instanceof PostConstructException || 
result.getThrowable() instanceof InvalidModelException) {
                log.debug("Could not adapt to model", result.getThrowable());
            } else {
                log.error("Could not adapt to model", result.getThrowable());
            }
            return null;
        } else {
            return result.getValue();
        }
    }
{code}

that means that all exceptions that are caught in a {{@PostConstruct}} 
annotated method are logged only in debug level. even if it's only a NPE in the 
code.

this makes identifying errors in PostConstruct tmethods very hard. we need to 
come up with a better solution to differentiate between validation errors not 
to log as errors and real errors like an NPE.
