Improve error output

Open lmserrano opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

When dealing with relatively big hierarchies with a multiplicity of case classes, and parsing multiple XML document files, it becomes relatively hard to identify specific problems in the XML and/or in the case classes in use, due to the lack of information contained in the exceptions triggered.

As an example, when parsing a big hierarchy in which one of the leaf/child nodes is missing a Name XML tag which is deemed mandatory by the used Query[String] and case class objects, the returned error by the library is:

Left(NotFound: no matched node)

The associated stack trace doesn't seem to contain information to help identify the custom type and/or field that originated the problem too:

This gives no information about the XPath expression and/or XML field which originated the problem.

Is there some way to obtain more information about where the problem is originating? Thank you.

Also, I don't think it matters but in my case I'm using compiled queries for optimizing their reuse throughout application's execution.
