Solved Stopping exception from printing to console > YamlConfig.loadConfig

Code:

FileConfiguration uuidConfig = null;
try
{
  uuidConfig =
            YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(configFile);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
  System.out.println("WOOPS!");
}

I tried this but, it still prints error . . . The code continues perfectly but, it prints an ugly error that I can do nothing about.

 

@Lightspeed
Can we see the error? The error is there for a reason. Also, please use e.printStackTrace(); Its not about trying to hide the error, it about fixing whats causing it.

 

@Zombie_Striker The error isn't a problem it's saying omg you have a key without : after it fixing it now and then it's all good code continues. I want it to not tell me this error.

 

@Lightspeed

Try not causing the error in the first place.

 

Hmm, then maybe put a ":" there?

 

This most likely is your problem. YamlConfugration is most likely not broken. The statement loadConfiguration() is most likely not broken. Most likely, the configFile is causing the problem.

Can we see what configFile is?

 

Code:

Names: Lightspeed360
Ips: 0
Currency: 0
Random: 0
Warnings: 0
error
error
error

It will load the file print an error then fix the file continuing my error fixing code with all the "error."
The system is ment to handle every error keeping it up to date but, this causes an error then fixes.
What I need is to catch this error and stop it from printing to console if possible.

 

@Lightspeed

But why does it need to fix them? There's no reason to introduce errors.

 

It's a players stats one messup there goes lets say a 100$ rank all thete money this system is ment to fix and recover.
When it fixes the key without a value it prints an annoying message that can make debugging alot harder to figure out wich error is comin from where.

 

@Lightspeed

But why does it create the erroneous config in the first place. There should be no reason why it does that.

 

@mythbusterma It's ment to fix human error I like everything to fix it's self handle it's self.

 

@Lightspeed

So you're trying to fix someone mistyping in your config file?

Where is the error being thrown and what is it?

 

@mythbusterma It's when I try YamlConfiguration#loadConfiguration(File file) it somewere not that method somewere in yaml throws a exception I tried extending it and overriding but I can't find were it throws the error inside.

 

@Lightspeed

Just catch the exception when you call loadConfiguration(), and only catch the one you're sure you can fix. Don't just catch Exception.

 

@mythbusterma I tried it still doesen't work

 

@Lightspeed

Well then you've done something wrong.

 

@mythbusterma I tried here my method

But it is!

 

@Lightspeed

No, it's not a declared exception.



As you can see, it will catch the Exception. You have to load it a different way.

 

Thats not the exception I get in the error

Figured out the annoying problem just created my own system.

Code:

YamlConfiguration attemptLoad(File file)
{
    YamlConfiguration config = new YamlConfiguration();
    try
    {
        config.load(file);
    }
    catch(IOException
        | InvalidConfigurationException e)
    {
        System.out.println("OOPS!");
    }
    return config;
}

When you just gotta reverse engineer bukkit.

@Lightspeed

That isn't reverse engineering and that's exactly what I told you to do...

 

I had to go thru the source code to redo the method . . . I don't see you telling me to do that anywhere.

 

@Lightspeed

That's pretty much what the docs say. Try reading the docs next time.
