You mean exception, right?

I recall your initial message and your concerns about requiring Struts.
But, as you mentioned, you will be using this only in Action classes,
which already (duh!) require Struts.

Are you nervous about using these exceptions?

Typically, if I catch an exception from some service that I called (say,
an application-specific exception), I'll go ahead and just insert the
error messages directly like this:

            ActionMessages errors = new ActionMessages();

            errors.add(ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE,
                       super.getActionMessage("error.whatever",
                                              "MyBundle", request));

            super.saveErrors(request, errors);

            return mapping.findForward("error");


Note that "super.getActionMessage" is a method that I wrote to get an
error message from a specific bundle.

My global "error" page prints out any error messages available in the
request. No need to throw another exception.

It really just comes down to what you want to do.
