TransformerImpl.setExtensionsTable swallows TransformerException
----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: XALANJ-2437
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2437
Project: XalanJ2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: transformation, Xalan
Affects Versions: 2.7, 2.7.1
Environment: Java
Reporter: Geoff Wheeler
Priority: Minor
When the method TransformerImpl.setExtensionsTable encounters a
TransformerException is catches it and prints out the stack trace to err. It
seems like it would be better to throw this exception to allow the end user to
handle it as they see fit.
In our experience we encountered an error stemming from invalid embedded Java
code being included in a transform. The exception caught by
TransformerImpl.setExtensionsTable contains extremely useful information as to
the to cause and location of the problem. Another exception does get thrown
later on, but it is just a NullPointerException that doesn't contain any
information as to the original cause of the problem.
