[ jEdit-devel ] Catching AWT exceptions

[Carlos Q. <car...@we...>]

Hi all

I'm in the process of updating JythonInterpreter and one of the new things is 
that it can catch unhandled AWT exceptions. This is useful to debug jython 
scripts that use AWT

To do that I use a trick which is to set the property 
"sun.awt.exception.handler" to a class name that catch the exception. This is 
not supported but it seems to work.

The only catch is that there is only one single listener for unhandled 
exceptions so I wonder if this will create problems for other plugins or 
jEdit itself

A more general approach could be to have a jEdit's class that does this and 
listeners can subscribe to this unhandled exceptions.

Any comments
