As I mentioned in a previous post, all Pharo Exceptions are swallowed during a dispatch from Java. This means that during a callback from Java to Pharo, you also cannot debug.
JavaCallbackRegistry>>safeDispatch: aRequest to: a2Block
"private -- invoke the handler for aRequest in an environment that will ensure that
some sort of response is always sent back to the requester. This is *vital* since otherwise
we will almost certainly deadlock ourselves"
[
[[self dispatch: aRequest to: a2Block]
on: JavaException
do: [:err | aRequest notifyError: err]]
on: JNIPortUtility exceptionsWithoutNotifications
do: [:err | aRequest notifyIgnored: 'The Smalltalk handler threw a non-Java exception (', err printString , ')']
] ifCurtailed: [aRequest notifyIgnored: 'The Smalltalk handler did not complete normally'].
Is there no way to allow for some debugging?
At the very least, I would like to suggest to log the exceptions with continuations using Beacon to allow for postmortem debugging. What do you think?
Cheers,
Doru
