Description

When Studio encounters error during parsing of schema files for import, it prints an exception stack trace in the log file and aborts the import, with no visible user feedback in Studio itself. The user has to monitor to log file to see that an error occur. Eg;

!ENTRY org.apache.directory.studio.schemaeditor 4 0 2008-01-08 18:57:37.899
!MESSAGE An error occured when importing the schema epd-export.schema.
!STACK 0
org.apache.directory.studio.schemaeditor.model.io.OpenLdapSchemaFileImportException: The file '/Users/torgeir/Desktop/epd-export.schema' can not be read correctly.
at org.apache.directory.studio.schemaeditor.model.io.OpenLdapSchemaFileImporter.getSchema(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.directory.studio.schemaeditor.view.wizards.ImportSchemasFromOpenLdapWizard$1.run(Unknown Source)
at org.eclipse.jface.operation.ModalContext$ModalContextThread.run(ModalContext.java:113)

It would be an improvement to get the error message inside Studio itself, and at least provide a line number where the parser encountered an error.
