I’m currently developing some portlets with Vaadin 6 and Liferay Portal. I would like to be able to disable the warning indication and displaying of the stack trace when an exception occurs in a component.
I have enabled logging of these exceptions by overriding the terminalError(Terminal.ErrorEvent event) method in my application. I have found that if I don’t call super.terminalError(event) the notification is not displayed.
My question is, is this safe? If so, is this a reasonable way to go about this?
In the book of Vaadin for Vaadin 6, it says that default functionality can be safely discarded, but I’m not 100% sure if this just applies to setErrorHandler() or if it applies to terminalError() as well.
Here is the relevant page from the book of Vaadin (HTML version):
