Dan Haywood created ISIS-665:
--------------------------------

             Summary: ObjectActionImpl should escalate a thrown Isis 
ApplicationException to its underlying cause if the transaction is in a state 
of mustAbort.
                 Key: ISIS-665
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ISIS-665
             Project: Isis
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core, Objectstore: JDO
    Affects Versions: core-1.3.0, objectstore-jdo-1.3.0
            Reporter: Dan Haywood
            Assignee: Dan Haywood
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: objectstore-jdo-1.4.0, core-1.4.0


We hit a situation whereby a bug in the domain code was causing a 
JDOUserException to be thrown (missing a mandatory-field), but then throwing an 
org.apache.isis.applib.ApplicationException.  

This exception is only intended for non-fatal exceptions.  Isis therefore 
attempted to commit the transaction subsequently only to find it had already 
been aborted.

ObjectActionImpl should try to identify this programming error, and "do the 
right thing", which is probably to throw the ApplicationException's underlying 
cause (else a runtime exception if there is none).

NB: this ticket should also include adding some documentation to the website, 
since this is a pretty subtle issue.
