hi Oliver It looks as if both '...Exception:' parts before the message result from using the method toString() wherever the Exception is transfomed to it's string representation.
I don't try find out whether this is done explicitly or implicitly. To get what you desire 'getMessage' would have to be used instead. simple sample: IllegalArgumentException iae = new IllegalArgumentException( "invalid id" ); System.out.println( iae ); System.out.println( iae.getMessage() ); output: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: invalid id invalid id Andreas
