[weld-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (WELD-782) Better exception message when bean creation fails in EL resolver

Better exception message when bean creation fails in EL resolver ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WELD-782 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WELD-782 Project: Weld Issue Type: Bug Components: Web Tier integration (JSF, JSP, EL and Servlet) Affects Versions: 1.1.0.Beta2 Reporter: Dan Allen Assignee: Pete Muir Fix For: 1.1.0.CR1 When bean creation fails in the EL resolver, Weld reports a misleading error message (defined by ElMessages.RESOLUTION_ERROR) WELD-001000 Error resolving property orderBean against base null The problem is that the EL resolver just wraps the bean creation in a try/catch block and reports this message if it fails (near end of AbstractWeldELResolver#getValue()). The includes any failures that come from a post-construct/initializer method. At this point in the code, base is always null because a bean is being resolved by name (the bean name is in the propertyString). Weld should clarify that bean creation failed during bean creation and remove the null reference in the message.
