http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29495 ServletContextListener and errors Summary: ServletContextListener and errors Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.25 Platform: All OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Servlet & JSP API AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tomcat helpfully catches exceptions from ServletContextListeners and aborts the initialization of the web app. There's just one problem: a listener cannot explicitly throw an exception, because the signature for the methods of the listener does not include any throws. If this is imposed by the servlet API standard, could Tomcat allow some tricky API that notes an error in a listener? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
