Norman Maurer commented on MIME4J-16:
-------------------------------------
I like the idea... The question is should we apply the patch before tagging the
svn for 0.3 release or after ?
> Allow exceptions from a ContentHandler
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: MIME4J-16
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MIME4J-16
> Project: Mime4j
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
> Assigned To: Norman Maurer
> Attachments: MimeException.patch
>
>
> There is currently no good way for a Mime4j ContentHandler to indicate that
> it has failed to process a message event and that no further events should be
> generated. Compare this with for example the SAX ContentHandler interface
> that allows implementing classes to throw SAXExceptions.
> Being able to throw such processing exceptions is important for example for a
> handler that wants to incrementally store a message in a backend store like a
> relational database or a JCR content repository.
> My proposal is to add a new MimeException exception class and allow it to be
> thrown from any of the ContentHandler methods. Such a change would be
> incompatible with any parser and other classes that call the ContentHandler
> methods (even indirectly, for example through the MimeStreamParser class),
> but existing classes that implement the ContentHandler interface would not be
> affected.
