I have a few questions about your response:
1) In what version was tacosConfig.popupWhenException fixed?
2) Can I override the exception presenter in my hivemodule? I've tried doing this using the following, but it doesn't seem to do anything:
<implementation service-id="tacos.AjaxExceptionPresenter">
<invoke-factory>
<construct class="collective.ui.custom.CustomExceptionPresenter">
<set-object property="exceptionPageName" value="infrastructure:exceptionPageName"/>
<set-object property="requestExceptionReporter" value="infrastructure:requestExceptionReporter"/>
<set-object property="responseRenderer" value="infrastructure:responseRenderer"/>
</construct>
</invoke-factory>
</implementation>
I was confused about that because you say if I want to customize the exception page, it's in the hivemodule, but then go on to say that there should be a way to override this setting (implying that there isn't currently a way to override this setting).
I definitely think that allowing tacos users to define the way errors are handled is very important. Using CSS to hide the error div is better than nothing, but still means that I'm giving the user a lot of information that they shouldn't have. That div contains a ton of info.
Thanks again,
Chris

The idea is that you can define tacosConfig the same way as you define
djConfig.
So, in my Border i can have
djConfig = { isDebug: true,
baseRelativePath: "js/dojo",
preventBackButtonFix: false,
parseWidgets: false
};
tacosConfig = {popupWhenException:false};
and all of this is rendered within <head>
However, tacosConfig.popupWhenException was overriden in tacos.js
which makes it difficult to use (it's fixed now).
The other problem is that when tacosConfig.popupWhenException=false
the exception page is appended to the current page by default, in a new div
with id tacosConfig.defaultExceptionConsoleId (by default this is
'exceptionId')
If that div already exists, its contents are overwritten.
So, if you want to hide the exception, you can:
- add a css rule #exceptionId {display:none;}
- or, add _javascript_ that intercepts the
tacos.handleException(responseElement)
function and does other things...
If you want to display it, you can do it:
- in a popup (default behaviour)
- in a normal div, by adding tacos.popupWhenException=false
If you want to customize the exception page, the exception presenter is
defined in
hivemodule.xml
http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.cgi/tacos/trunk/src/descriptor/META-INF/hivemodule.xml?view=markup
and it sets
tacos:/net/sf/tacos/ajax/pages/AjaxException as the exceptionPageName.
I guess we should add a way to override this setting + allow users to
create their own exception page.
