Say I wanted to have a remotable Java interface with a method like:
int myMethod() throws java.sql.SQLException;
Should I be able to throw this exception, say, across the web service
binding?
I don't see why not. JAX-WS Sec 3.7 describes how to build a fault bean
out of an exception like SQLException which doesn't conform to the pattern
in JAX-WS Sec 2.5. A tool like wsgen should be able to generate a WSDL
with a corresponding fault element, typed by the default mapping obtained by
viewing SQLException as a JavaBean (Sec 3.7) per JAXB.
(For a complicated data type the default JAXB mapping isn't enough without
annotations, but for simpler examples it might be OK.)
Do we view this as a valid remote interface? I'm not asking whether it
works today.. just whether it seems like it should work.
