James M Snell commented on ABDERA-29:
-------------------------------------
I've updated the Abdera class so that the error is not hidden on the newFactory
and newParser methods. We still need to make this more intuitive for the entire
class
> Failure mode when dependencies are missing is totally uninformative

> Key: ABDERA-29
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ABDERA-29
> Project: Abdera
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Garrett Rooney
>
> When Abdera is used in an environment where necessary jars are missing (the
> JAF stuff in the case I just encountered) the failure mode (null pointer
> return values from things like Abdera.getNewFactory()) is basically
> impossible to diagnose. Sure, you can tell something is wrong, but there's
> no indication as to WHAT is wrong.
