Hi everyone, I would like to change the API from the ReportMojo.
I was recently looking at https://github.com/apache/maven-reporting-impl/blob/9050da0e7c2defed851621b62c0160b52716ba11/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/reporting/AbstractMavenReport.java#L338-L342 But it seems the method boolean canGenerate() does not throw any exceptions. OTOH I see that a lot of reports are scanning for files and have to (possibly) deal with IOExceptions at some point, either via Files.walk() or FileUtils.getFiles(). Sadly, we cannot just wrap them into a MojoExecutionException or MavenReportException, because both are not thrown from that method, AND the method canGenerate is called from two locations.So, what is the recommended approach, if canGenerate encounters an IOException? For this reason, I would like to introduce this API change: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7393 Thanks,, Ben --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
