[OJB-developers] oql exception

[Georg S. <ge...@me...>]

Hi,

When doing a query like

select allX from X where ...

and putting an invalid X classname a NullPointerException is thrown in
OQLQueryImpl at

this.bindIterator = this.flatten(this.query.getCriteria(), new
Vector()).iterator();

The reason is that in OQLParser at method fromClause()

try {
	clazz = Class.forName(id.getText(), true,
	Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader());
} catch (Exception e) {}

The ClassNotFoundException is simply ignored. I just put

	throw  new TokenStreamException(id.getText() + " is not a valid
classname");

into the catch clause, which is then propagated up to the application as a
QueryInvalidException, which for me does make sense in this case.

Regards

Georg
