Chris Bartlett commented on PIVOT-769:
--------------------------------------
Yep, that is what I meant.
Exceptions are currently caught and stored in a field named 'fault' of type
Exception.
Change it so that 'fault' is a Throwable, Throwables are caught and stored in
'fault', and the getter returns a Throwable.
> A Task's TaskListener will not be called if a Throwable is thown when the
> task is executed

> Key: PIVOT-769
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-769
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core-util
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Chris Bartlett
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.1
>
>
> org.apache.pivot.util.concurrent.Task.ExecuteCallback.run() only catches and
> records Exceptions as 'faults'.
> try {
> result = execute();
> } catch(Exception exception) {
> fault = exception;
> }
> If a java.lang.Error or other non-Exception Throwable is thrown while the
> task is executing, the thread will be killed off and neither of the
> TaskListener callback methods will be executed.
> Also, nothing will be logged to syserr, sysout or elsewhere meaning the
> Throwable is 'swallowed' without any notification.
