JSF hiding exceptions?
Question
I have a managed bean for a JSF page which is doing JPA calls in the constructor to populate fields in the bean. I'm having a bit of trouble with another call to persist an entity (to populate data for testing). I'm expecting it to throw some sort of exception since it's not working, but I'm not getting anything. Just of the heck of it I tried the following:
Query newQuery = em.createQuery("Bad Syntax");
List newList = newQuery.getResultList();
I'd expect an IllegalArgumentException here since the query string is completely invalid, but the page still loads and I don't see any exceptions anywhere.
Am I right in expecting this exception? If so, why am I not seeing it?

It doesn't suppress exceptions by default. As a quick test I tried the following:
package com.example;
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
@ManagedBean
public class Bean {
public Bean() {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("No!");
}
}
with
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">
<h:head>
<title>test</title>
</h:head>
<h:body>
#{bean}
</h:body>
</html>
and I got a nice default error page with the following trace in the webbrowser:
javax.el.ELException: /test.xhtml: Cant instantiate class: com.example.Bean.

So your problem probably lies somewhere else. Have you run a debugger?

Well, it appears there was some sort of issue with NetBeans not redeploying everything properly. I had been running clean builds while I was originally troubleshooting, but after letting things sit for a couple of days and going back to it, I'm now seeing what I'd expect to see.
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: An exception occurred while creating a query in EntityManager: Exception Description: Syntax error parsing the query [Bad Syntax], line 1, column 0: unexpected token [Bad].
I'm not sure what lesson I've really learned from this, but it's definitely removed some of my trust NetBeans.
