Chris Bartlett commented on PIVOT-769:
--------------------------------------
Just to clarify - Writing *something* to System.err is better than nothing, but
would not be required *in addition to* a more complete solution.
> 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.
