Description Sven Efftinge

2010-08-20 04:30:36 EDT

In org.eclipse.xtext.ui.editor.contentassist.AbstractJavaBasedContentProposalProvider line 48 the valueconverter is used to create a syntactically correct version of the proposal. 
If the ValueConverter throws an exception the the exception is not cached, but stops the creation of the proposal list and the exception is silently ignored.

The exception should be catched locally instead.
