Hi,
We had some explanations in the same thread before. Please see it below.
Simply speaking, when a SCA programmer works with Web Services, it uses Java
exceptions to represent WS faults. If she/he starts from WSDL, WSDL2Java
tool will generate the java exception from the WS fault. If she/he starts
with Java, Java2WSDL tool will generate the WS fault from java exceptions.
Different WS stacks have different patterns to map the Java Exception and WS
fault. We're trying to understand the patterns so that databinding framework
can help transform the fault data.
Thanks,
Raymond
<extracted from the previous note>
The Exception/Fault patterns (How does a java exception wrap/represent a
fault?)
There are a few important fault patterns:
* JAX-WS section 2.5 pattern (i.e. getFaultInfo() returns wrappered fault
with specific constructors)
* JAXWS section 3.7. It derives a WSDL fault from the plain Java exception
on the SEI.
* Axis2 pattern: It's similar to JAX-WS 2.5 pattern, but the method name is
getFaultMessage()
* Plain Java Exception: The exception itself has properties corresponding
to the fault data
* Other patterns such as JAX-RPC?
The exception/fault pattern could be independent of the databinding of the
fault data. For example, we could use the JAX-WS 2.5 pattern for fault data
in SDO. We should replace the FAULT_ELEMENT with @WebFault.

The binding-specific exception/fault mapping won't be exposed to the
programming model. I was proposing to make the mapping extensible so that
we can support multiple patterns without impacting the SCA application
code.

I agree that this is where the mapping patterns are coming from.
But doesn't this undermine the
whole binding-independent programming model feature advertised by SCA?
Maybe it's just me, but I'm having trouble understanding what problem
we're trying to solve. Could one of you post an example illustrating the
issue in application developer terms?
My naive view is:
- binding-independent programming model sounds good!
- extensible mapping sounds scary, as an application developer will I need
to understand all these extensible mappings?
But again I'm probably missing something as I'm not really able to
understand what you're talking about, an example would help a lot.
Thanks.
