Re: HTTPChannel.cpp exceptions

[Fred Preston]

Hi John,
      If the channel fails at any stage, it should throw an exception
because something unrecoverable is happening (on Windows we can use
GetLastError() to find out what's happening - but I don't know if that is a
standard C method (I see John has done something with this [GetLastError]
in HTTPChannel)).  I'll go through the Axis3 code and change where
appropriate.  At the moment, if there is an error in channel read/write the
channel does not close.  Perhaps by using the error reported by
GetLastError we can make a decision on the severity of the error before
just blindly closing the channel and throwing an exception.  Any thoughts?

Regards,

Fred Preston.

Hi Samisa,Fred,

when looking at the HTTPChannel yesterday I saw in openChannel sometimes we
throw an exception and sometimes we just return a boolean - for the same
evnt i.e. failng to open the channel. Did you mean this or should I change
them all to throw an exception?
