Noel Grandin commented on PIVOT-536:
------------------------------------
As near as I can tell, all you need is an API to access
xmlStreamReader.getLocation()
which will give you the position of the parser at the time of the error.
Is this sufficient?
> WTKXSerializer should provide a structure error object when a serializer
> error occurs

> Key: PIVOT-536
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-536
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: wtk
> Reporter: Appddevvv
> Priority: Trivial
>
> When an error occurs in the serializer, logException() is typically called.
> The error message, line number and other information is typically not
> available for use by tooling. WTKXSerializer should provide a structured
> object with the error information in it e.g. the line number.
> I don't have a patch for this but I think a simple error object and a
> property accessor would be all that's needed. The error object could be
> accessed as part of exception handling.
> I came across when writing pivotpad (xamlpad like tool) and wanted to
> highlight the error in the bxml text.
> This improvement is targeted towards tooling support and has no other
> apparent use.
