Hi
This would be fairly easy to do with JAX-RS. There's a number of ways to
propogate HTTP errors with JAX-RS from your application code :
1. throw WenApplicationException
public void putIt(String s) {
throw new WebApplicationException()
}
By default it will cause 500.
2. You can also use a Response object, either directly or by wrapping it into a
WebApplicationException
public void putIt(String s) {
throw new WebApplicationException(
Response.status(406).entity(descitptionOfProblemInXml).build())
}
WebApplicationException is a RuntimeException so you can use (possibly) at any
level in your app...
or
just
@ProduceMime("application/atom+entry")
@Path("{id}")
public Response getIt(Long id) {
Entry e = find(id);
if (e == null) {
return
Response.status(errorCode).entity(descitptionOfProblemInXml).build();
} else {
return Response.entity(e).build();
}
}
Cheers, Sergey
