Unknown category unusable in Java Compiler Warnings

XMLWordPrintable

      Java compiler warnings that don't fall into a known category are inaccessible from the Categories view.

      We use a third party annotation processor that outputs its own compiler warnings. These warnings do show up under Packages and Files. However, when going to the Category tab, I just see a row with a blank value under the Category column, and there is no hyperlink so I can't view items in that category.

          Yes, it makes sense to replace empty categories or types with a "-" symbol. Then those warnings can be filtered by using a hyperlink.

          Hey drulli , I can understand the issue partially, but couldn't get it properly. Could you please explain whether issue to be solved, is it still opened? and what is the expected behaviour?

          The problem still exists, you can see here some warnings that do not have a category and therefore are shown without a link:

          This is the problematic code:

          What kind of fix are we looking at drulli ? Or are we closing this?

          Do we want an "Uncategorized" or "Miscellaneous" Category?

          Actually we just need something different than the empty string. I would suggest to replace empty string with "-" (because it is also used for packages and types), but it would work for "Uncategorized" or "Miscellaneous" as well.
