Log warning and continue on java hint failure by mbien · Pull Request #8982 · apache/netbeans (original) (raw)
Makes sense to me. Preventing a single hint problem from causing problems for other hints is a good change. The hint still needs to be fixed, but that is a different problem.
I thought it might be possible to use the ErrorDescription to carry the problem to GUI, but that is not equipped to do this (from my POV at least). Using logging on warning level should give it enough exposure without causing trouble.
Thanks.
