wsdl2java generated exceptions do not display the received fault messages if 
created with constructor without parameters (f.e. if received and thrown in 
Stub)

                 Key: AXIS2-5050
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-5050
             Project: Axis2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: wsdl
    Affects Versions: 1.5.4, 1.4.1
         Environment: all
            Reporter: Artur Linhart


If the exceptions generated from wsdl/xsd are used with the constructor without 
parameters, then they just contain as a exception message the name of the class 
and ignore the complete content of the exception, even if there is much more 
information available. This is especially problem in Stubs, where wsdl2java 
generates the received exception instantiation with 
exceptionClass.newInstance(); what leads to the fact in stub is effectively no 
exception message available. So, for example in the Unit-tests results normally 
the stacktrace of some exceltion ExceptionClassName with exception message is 
shown without any detail, You have always to go into the debugger and figure 
out what is the real fault behind the exception messsage "ExceptionClassName" 
is. This is very time consuming. Sure, one can take the exception generated by 
Axis and extend it, but then if the wsdl changes, it has to be regenerated, 
resynchronized, etc. etc.

So, my proposal is to override in the generated exception the method 
getMessage() by something similar to:
 
        /**
         * @see java.lang.Throwable#getMessage()
         */
        @Override
        public String getMessage() {
                String locMessage = super.getMessage();
                if (getFaultMessage() != null && 
getFaultMessage().getXXXXFaultMessageContent() != null && (locMessage == null 
|| this.getClass().this.getClass().getName().endsWith("." + locMessage))) {
                         locMessage = 
getFaultMessage().getXXXXFaultMessageContent().getFaultMessage()
                }
                return locMessage;
        }

where getXXXXFaultMessageContent is the name, generated according to the name 
convention already used in the wsdl2java tool.

With similar construct there would be no necessity to change the generated code 
and would be very helpful for the devault usage of the Axis2 tools.
