[josm-dev] R: R: R: R: R: R: FW: [OSM-newbies] JOSM problems - is it just me?

[Fabrizio Carrai]

Do you mean how this solution can be integrated in the JOSM system and so possibly reported to other users experiencing the same problem ?

First, I'm not a Java expert, nor in JOSM, so I've to delegate somebody more expert than me to reply.
But I like your question that involves the knowledege management.

I understood that the specifi problem was hard to detect in JOSM since it was happening "down" in the JVM. No idea if errors in JVM can be catched in the main app, and if so what data are returned.

If I understood the point, the app (JOSM in that case) should catch the exception, get "awt.dll" and "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION" (the few info of my case) and use it for a Knowledge Base database search.

Could be a good idea, but no clue about feasibility.

Have a nice day to you too.
Ciao!
	Fabrizio
