Roy, Have you read my exception handling chapter on theserverside.com? If that doesn't answer this question, than I've failed and I need to rewrite that chapter. Take a look at it and send me some feedback if it doesn't answer your question enough and I'll fix it.
Here's a link: http://www.theserverside.com/resources/strutsreview.jsp Chuck > Hi folks, > > I'm having a problem with exception handling with 1.1b.

I can't see any way for my Action that deals > with global-exceptions to get a handle to the Exception that was thrown, > without creating my own ExceptionHandler class. > > Shouldn't all exceptions that are minor enough to use ActionErrors be caught > within an Action and not thrown to a global-exception? imho, global > exceptions should be for reporting major, unexpected exceptions. The Action > that handles that exception should have a handle to an Exception object, not > to an ActionError object. This way the proper reporting can be done > (emailing of stack traces, etc.), and the user should recieve a generic > error page. > > Any other thoughts on this? > > -Roy > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
