Documentation is not sufficiently cross-linked:
For example: http://stellar.github.io/java-stellar-sdk/org/stellar/sdk/effects/AccountCreditedEffect.html doesn't contain a link to the method which creates it. Such a link would be helpful for a newb trying to program against the API without any examples to work from.
Calling an accounts request gives an uninformative error message:
final Server stellarServer = new Server ("http://localhost:8080/"); final AccountsRequestBuilder accountsRequest = stellarServer.accounts(); try { final Page<Account> accounts = accountsRequest.execute(); } catch (IOException accountsRequestExecuteException) { System.out.println("Requesting accounts failed: " + accountsRequestExecuteException); }
Results in this error message:
