---------------------------------------
I think Brian is probably talking about THRIFT-237 ?
> Java servers do not turn internal errors into thrift exceptions
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-378
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-378
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compiler (Java)
> Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.2
>
>
> Occasionally a service will produce a runtime exception because of a problem
> in the environment or simply a bug.
> By default this means clients will error out trying to read a response. This
> is confusing because it is not obvious that the problem was with the server,
> let alone what the problem actually was.
> One workaround might be to add an InternalError exception and declare every
> method to throw that, but this would require wrapping each method
> implementation on the server with a try/catch/throw block, which is ugly and
> repetitive (especially if there are other try/catch blocks nested) -- exactly
> the sort of code that Thrift is good at automating away.
> I think the right fix would be for the server to catch runtime exceptions in
> the generated process methods and send back a TApplicationException. This is
> what some other servers (e.g., Erlang) already do.
