Dan Newton a477d59c15 CORDA-3094 improvements to checkpoint dumper (#5324)
- Handle errors in Jackson and checkpoint deserialisation. A file
  notifying the user that the checkpoint dump failed is created when
  errors occur.
- Handle message deserialisation errors. A string placeholder is used
  if an error occurs.
- Add more information about subflows (include their `FlowLogic`)
- Increase clarity in checkpoint output field names

* CORDA-3904 Add `flowCallStackSummary`

Add `flowCallStackSummary` to the output which contains the same content
as `flowCallStack` minus each subflow's `FlowLogic`. The `FlowLogic`
contains a ton of info which is normally repeated in each subflow.
Adding the summary gives an overview of the steps the flow executed
and which step it is currently on.

The `suspendedOn` field is put underneath the summary and the original
call stack is moved below the suspended info.

This puts the most useful information towards the top of the json file.

Corda Documentation Build

This Readme describes how to build the Corda documentation for the current version. The output html files will be written to the corda\docs\build\html directory.

Prerequisites / First time build

Before you begin, you need to:

  1. Install Docker.
  2. Ensure that Docker is running.
  3. Select Expose daemon on tcp://localhost:2375 without TLS in the Docker Settings (which you can open from the System Tray by right-clicking the Docker symbol and then selecting Settings)

Build process

  1. Open a cmd dialogue.
  2. Navigate to the root location (this is the \corda directory)
  3. Run the documentation build (gradlew makeDocs or ./gradlew makeDocs)

Windows users: If this task fails because Docker can't find make-docsite.sh, go to Settings > Shared Drives in the Docker system tray agent, make sure the relevant drive is shared, and click 'Reset credentials'.

RST style guide

The Corda documentation is described using the ReStructured Text (RST) markup language. For details of the syntax, see this.

Version placeholders

We currently support the following placeholders; they get substituted with the correct value at build time:

    "|corda_version|" 
    "|java_version|" 
    "|kotlin_version|" 
    "|gradle_plugins_version|" 
    "|quasar_version|"

If you put one of these in an rst file anywhere (including in a code tag), it will be substituted with the value from constants.properties (which is in the root of the project) at build time.

The code for this can be found near the top of the conf.py file in the docs/source directory.
