Roger Whitcomb updated PIVOT-916:
---------------------------------
Attachment: app_exception.patch
This "app_exception.patch" builds on what is in 2.0.4 branch currently, to move
the default Alert display into ApplicationContext and remove the
"displayException" from Application.Adapter.
I think this is better, and resolves Karel's issue without needing to change
any user code. It also allows all startup exceptions to be handled by Pivot,
either in the default handler, or in a user's application.
> Replace DesktopApplicationContext.displayException calls with
> ApplicationContext.handleUncaughtException

> There should be consistent way to handle uncaught exceptions in Pivot
> applications.
> However uncaught exceptions thrown in DesktopApplicationContext class (for
> example in application.startup ) are handled using private static method
> displayException, which displays dialog and its logic cannot be overriden.
> May be ApplicationContext.handleUncaughtException could be made protected and
> calls to DesktopApplicationContext.displayException could be replaced by
> ApplicationContext.handleUncaughtException. And possibly Application.Adapter
> could implement UncaughtExceptionHandler - so current
> DesktopApplicationContext.displayException logic could be moved to new
> Application.Adapter.uncaughtExceptionThrown method.
> This should enable to override uncaught exception handling globally in pivot
> applications.
> Motivation:
> We deploy Pivot app using Java Web Start. Users have by default disabled Java
> Console (and they are not familiar with it). We want to display custom dialog
> to handle uncaught exceptions displaying full stack trace and with possiblity
> to report exception to help desk.
> I think, in current implementation it is not possible to override handling of
> uncaught exceptions thrown during application init and other specific
> situations.
