Taher Alkhateeb commented on OFBIZ-6783:
----------------------------------------

I'm a bit lost now.

First, the test case above "did" exist. It just had a different syntax which is:
java -jar ofbiz.jar test -component=minilang -suitename=MinilangTests (before any of my work)

Second, you need to go to an old version, run the tests, and see if the logs spit out any errors. I'm not sure where to debug if I can't determine for sure that these errors are related to my work or not.

Either way, I suspect that it is not related to the patch because the system is complaining from specialpurpose components, which are far away from anything related to StartupLoaders (except for POS which is not showing in the logs)

Is it possible to isolate my work and yours away from a comparison test?

> Looking at the main method and design of Start.java and the start component overall looks ugly. The things I would like to fix so far are:
> - the files are too long
> - some variables are not even needed (loaderArgs?)
> - the level of abstraction is wrong
> - main throws an exception!
> - the arguments processing logic is terrible, need to move it to commons-cli
> It's just so messy and ugly to look at. So for me refactoring starts at Start! Given that this is an important component, I will provide a patch to be reviewed by the community before committing just to be on the safe side.
