Erik, I cannot compile code you have sent me. These are problems:
PipelineStage.getMyConfiguration()

Earlier, this methods had throws clause and now it doesn't. compiler
complains because PipelineException is not handled. The only method that
throws exception here is from IPipelineStageResolver.getConfig(). I guess
there is no need for throwing excepion here since its children cannot throw
it. Is this correct?

The next problem I noticed is in
PipelineStageResolver.getnextPipelineStageName(). In interface this method
does not declare throws clause but in implementation class it does. This
caused several problems in other implementation classes. Looking in
implementation I have noticed that you throw exception if nextStage is null,
so I included throws clause in method. Can you confirm these are the changes
you want? If yes, this could cause problems since nextStage CAN be null (not
provided). This just mean that processing should stop in that stage.

Guys,

As I informed earlier, I have made some "substantial" changes to a number of
classes involved with pipeline processing to improve its ability to report
errors/exception is pipeline processing.  I'm a bit paranoid about "breaking
the build" and have therefore "JARred" up the changes that I have made (I
believe I have included them all) and attached them to this email, rather
than putting them in CVS (which I abhor, but that is another subject).

Can you please UnJar these files into your build directory, rebuild, and run
with all the pipelines you currently have?  I have done so and have actually
identified errors in a few pipelines that I didn't even know I had.  Please
let me know your results tomorrow as it is my last official "programming
day" for my project.

Thanks.



Erik

Erik, All:

Excellent work - this is kind of polish that is needed.  In the light of
this,
I want to delay to next wednesday to release 1.0.  This will give me some
time to work on a news release.

regards
Bruce
