Hi,
I am trying to improve the exception handling for the new blocks. The
problem is that you don't see the exceptions thrown inside a called
blockservlet. Apart from changing the BlockConnection to throw a
CascadingIOException,
Fixed that. I didn't spent much time thinking about exception handling
in the blocks fw, so patches would be welcome.
the ResourceReader must throw any IOException
caught in generate() (line 349). This is currently not done because it
looks like there are cases, where a failed generate should be silently
ignored. The debug message says "Received an IOException, assuming
client severed connection on purpose".
Is this true? Or would it be no harm to throw the exception at that
place to trigger the standard "Problem in creating the Request" page?
No idea why the code just swallow the exception. IMO it is a bad idea.
If there is any sources that throw Exceptions without meaning anything
with it, it should be fixed there instead.
I would assume that it fixes some issue but couldn't find any
information about it in the SVN log.
Anyone who know anything about it?
