Class FactoryConfigurationError

java.lang.Object
  java.lang.Throwable
      java.lang.Error
          org.geotools.factory.FactoryConfigurationError

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

Deprecated. This error was used by FactoryFinder. The proposed replacement (FactoryRegistry) uses an exception (FactoryRegistryException) instead of an error. There is two reasons why we switched back to an exception instead of an error:

• At the difference of FactoryFinder, FactoryRegistry do not expects a default implementation to be specified.
• FactoryRegistry can accepts an optional set of user-provided Hints. Those hints may reduces the set of acceptable factories.

Because of the above, a "factory not found" exception may not be caused by a JVM, compilation or packaging error. It is more similar to a MissingResourceException.

public class FactoryConfigurationError

extends java.lang.Error

Deadly error. Usually if this is thrown, an application built upon geotools will not be able to function. I make this an error so that the standard bad code
try { somthingRisky(); } catch (Exception e) { logger.warning("something happened"); } will be subverted and the error will grind the application to a halt, as it should.
