[gatein-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (GTNPORTAL-3292) Services Management - Invalid parameters lead to methods failing with exceptions

Services Management - Invalid parameters lead to methods failing with exceptions -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: GTNPORTAL-3292 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-3292 Project: GateIn Portal Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 3.5.3.Final Reporter: Miroslav Cupak Priority: Minor Description of problem: Methods in "templatestatistics" and "portalcontroller" section of the Services Management gadget fail with exception (NPE/MalformedURLException) if they are called with an invalid parameter. The exception is visible in the server log, but in the UI, you only see the message "Method's executed, return no result", which might be a bit confusing. For example methods "reloadConfiguration" without a parameter and "loadConfiguration" called with an invalid path both lead to the same message being shown in the gadget, whereas only one of them really failed with exception. Actual results: Exception is logged, message "Method's executed, return no result" is displayed. Expected results: It would be nice to have these two situations (failure/no return value) distinguished in a consistent way (methods in other sections don't log an exception and usually return at least some value).
