We throw a CustomException and catch it in the webtier.This is then forwarded to a Error jsp page which takes the error message(user friendly) and the possible reasons(From Property File for each type of Exception) and displays it on the page.

Specifically, in the web tier. typical scenario, some code in the web tier needs to create a SLSB, and invoke a method on it. In the SLSB, the invoking of that method has to deal with another 3-4 EJB exceptions. So, do you a) catch them, and rethrow them as your own custom exception type b) catch them, and rethrow them as a runtime exception c) just add them to the throws clause and then in the web tier, do you handle these exceptions each individually, or do you just let the 500 error page pick them up (assuming you have a nice one). I'm always inclined to do (b), as the only time I ever see them is in development when I've made an error... its unlikely I'm going to be able to deal with them gracefully anyway, so it seems logical - however, at the same time I've got the voice in the back of my head telling me I'm being lazy... be interested to hear other ppl's thoughts on this. cheers dim =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff EJB-INTEREST".
