Long Day At Work

Long day at work today…I was supposed to leave at 6:10 or so….didn’t end up leaving until about 6:50. “oooh, lets just try and continue to figure out this one bug before leaving” is about how it went. I kept causing a jar file to throw an exception–an exception in something that theoretically should be stable tested code that we do not have the source to. Well, after looking at every possible thing I could be doing wrong (is my array really the right size, there’s no nulls getting passed in, etc), we finally took to de-compiling the error causing file, and found a rather suspicious line of code where it was iterating over the array giving me an exception using the wrong variable–well, that’s great, means its not my code that’s wrong–but that doesn’t recompile the jar into working code…Might be able to temporarily work around the problem by changing how many items are in the other array…
