Michael Muller commented on HBASE-13419: ---------------------------------------- I can see a case for it and against it. I think it depends a lot on how users will generally display their exception text. If it's printed to the console, it's probably better to use newlines. If it's written to a log-file, maybe not. Would you prefer that I switched it to newlines? > Thrift gateway should propagate text from exception causes. > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-13419 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13419 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Thrift > Reporter: Michael Muller > Labels: newbie, patch > Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.1.0 > > Attachments: ExpandExceptionCauses.patch, ExpandExceptionCauses3.patch > > > Exceptions passed back from the thrift gateway only include the message text > of the toplevel exception. Information from the cause chain is lost. > In some cases, the top-level exception text is useless but there is some very > specific and useful information provided in some of the cause exceptions, so > it would be very helpful to flatten all of the messages into the exception > text returned to the user. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
