Incorrect handling of Undeclared Errors in IPC calls to SpecificResponder
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: AVRO-723
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-723
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Bug
Components: java
Affects Versions: 1.5.0
Reporter: Stephen Gargan
Priority: Minor
Undeclared errors thrown during service invocations are not getting returned
correctly. When they are encountered, the writeError method in the responder
will try to encode them using errors union for the message. However, because
they are undeclared they are not present in the union and encoding causes a
further AvroRuntimeException. Its this "Not in union" exception that gets
returned to the client, not the undeclared problem which gets lost.
The attached patch handles them like other system errors, calling to string on
the exception and writing this as the error to be returned.
