Have you ever hit an error in some code and been faced with a giant stack trace, and no clue what that means?  Us too. We wished there was a way for the exception to describe the path to the error not (just) in terms of which methods called which methods, but what operations triggered what other operations. That's the OperationTracker.

The operation tracker is another aspect of Tapestry's commitment to feedback.

The OperationTracker is a resource; it's actually a singleton, and is available for injection into any IoC service (or Tapestry component).

Using the OperationTracker you may run a Runnable, or invoke an Invokable (returning a typed response).  Associated with the operation is a description string.

If there are no exceptions, then no problem.

If there  are exceptions, then you'll see the console output logged at the point of the exception:

Notice how the operation trace at the top of the text succinctly explains how execution arrived at the point of failure and why, information that isn't captured in a stack trace.

This operation trace appears in the Tapestry web applications, as part of the default exception report page.

There are times, especially when tracking down startup failures, where it is useful to see the operations log even without explicit exceptions.

Enabling debug level logging for the org.apache.tapestry5.ioc.Registry logging category will provide huge volumes of output in the console:

The output identifies operation depth (the number in square brackets), whether the operation is starting (–>) or finishing (<–), and even the execution time of the operation.
