Parse errors during file open fail silently
When opening a file, which cannot be parsed (due to parse errors), see e.g. #28, Protege will simply not show anything in the user interface. It behaves as if the user did not try to open a file. In reality, the log window shows a bunch of errors, but the user has to know that this log window exists, and open it manually to see what the problem was. The UI should at least show a messagebox or (better) open the log window automatically if an error was encountered.
Tested with Protege 5.5.
Minimal example (save as bug.obo
)
import: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/pato.obo
[Typedef]
id: has_regexp
name: has regexp
silently fails (until #28 is fixed at least) and does nothing in the UI.
