[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-917?page=all ]
Eran Chinthaka updated AXIS2-917: --------------------------------- Priority: Minor (was: Blocker) Yes, we do have problems with documentation. Not only with fault handling, but also in some other areas. I personally do not consider this as a blocker for Axis2 1.1 to move forward. These days our devs are busy in stabilizing the code. But you always have the option of helping us with writing some useful documentation. Or are there any volunteers for this? Reducing the priority. > User guide should give explanation and examples of fault handling > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: AXIS2-917 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-917 > Project: Apache Axis 2.0 (Axis2) > Issue Type: Wish > Components: samples, build,site & docs > Affects Versions: 1.0 > Reporter: Derek Foster > Assigned To: Eran Chinthaka > Priority: Minor > Attachments: sampleService-wsdl.rar > > > The Axis2 user guide provides no examples of: > 1) The WSDL to declare that a fault may be thrown from an operation > (suitable for passing into WSDL2Java) > 2) The server-side code for a fault exception, as generated by WSDL2Java > and modified as a user might be expected to modify it. > 3) The server-side code to throw the fault exception, including a tested > example of passing on a custom error message to be transmitted as part of a > SOAP fault (in the faultDetail) and received by the client. > 4) The client-side code for receiving and handling a fault. > Furthermore, what discussion of faults that there is seems fairly > contradictory. For instance, there are various suggestions that throwing an > AxisFault exception from a service is the way to issue a fault. However, > WSDL2Java does not generate service methods that are declared to throw > AxisFault, and there seems to be no way to declare such a fault in WSDL. (at > least, none that I can find). Fault generation from a service that was not > generated by WSDL2Java should be treated as a separate section, since it is > handled in a totally different manner by server code. I think that both kinds > of fault handling need to be documented clearly in the user guide. > I have been trying for weeks to figure out how this is supposed to work, and > still haven't gotten it to work quite right (my custom error message included > in the thrown fault exception is getting lost somewhere before the SOAP fault > is transmitted). This is a basic feature that should be documented clearly. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
