Better error handling for plugin factories
Reported by David Cox | October 1st, 2010 @ 10:57 AM
Currently, errors in the construction of plugin objects (in plugin factories) tend to produce unhelpful error messages (e.g. if a required attribute is missing, error messages do not indicate that this is the problem, much less which attribute is missing). The onus is now on the plugin developer to handle errors gracefully; however with proper exception handling, it should be possible to manage error handling is a consistent way for all plugins.
