[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-3791) Cannot add/remove stack, protocols

[Richard Achmatowicz (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3791?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12673787#comment-12673787 ] 

Richard Achmatowicz commented on AS7-3791:
------------------------------------------

The problem here is that the error message is too cryptic. 

What is happening is that if you try to create a stack via the add() operation *without* having specified a transport element and a non-empty protocol stack, either as optional parameters or via batching (see below), the runtime will try to install the transport element anyway, and will complain that its required parameter "type" describing the name of the transport protocol (i.e. udp, tcp, tunnel) may not be null. This is the message we are seeing.

In order to specify a stack's transport and protocol list, there are two methods:
- create the stack with one call to add() and specify them as optional parameters to the add operation, which now accepts transport and protocols parameters (see the operation description for add)
- create the stack in several steps using batching, as described above  

I think this can be cleared up by checking if the transport element is undefined , or the protocol list is empty, and outputting a message something like: "stack transport element is undefined - please specify a transport and protocol stack, either as optional parameters to the add operation or via batching".
