David Reiss commented on THRIFT-416: ------------------------------------ bq. I would call "tell the developer what happened when there is a fatal error" a significant improvement in functionality. Then let's add JUL configuration to the example server setup in the documentation. I'm sure everyone just copies from that anyway. > java.util.logging eats exceptions without warning > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: THRIFT-416 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-416 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Library (Java) > Reporter: Jonathan Ellis > Assignee: Jonathan Ellis > Attachments: > 0001-allow-exceptions-to-propagate-up-where-feasible.-on.patch, > 0002-switch-to-log4j.patch > > > Using java.util.logging has two related problems. > One is that virtually no java project in the wild uses it. Everyone uses the > more advanced log4j. > Two is that unlike log4j, java.util.logging does not warn you when it is > swallowing errors because it has not been configured. > So thrift exceptions vanish without a trace which is bad. > Here is a patch to switch to log4j. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
