[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-5800) Output the name and value of attributes that can't be replicated for easier tracking

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5800?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12728060#comment-12728060 ] 

Chris Laprun commented on AS7-5800:
-----------------------------------

I would argue that this error shouldn't happen in production (if you still have non-clusterable attributes in production, I think you have bigger problems than security ^_^) so sensitive information leak potential would probably be minimal.

The value is actually quite useful to more easily find out which class needs to be made Serializable when trying to address the issue. I ran into the issue while using a framework that I'm not familiar with so I wouldn't have had any idea what the attribute name was. Having the value (by step debugging the ClusteredSession code) let me figure out quickly which class needed to be looked at and it would have made the resolution process much harder to just have the name of the attribute (looking up an arbitrary String in a codebase is harder than finding a class).

However, if you think that outputting the value is too problematic, I'd settle for just the name.

> Currently, the only message when an attribute cannot be replicated is "Specified attribute cannot be replicated" which is not very helpful to track down and fix the problem.
