Attributes:
| Name | Description | Data type | Required | Default value |
| exceptions | Comma-separated list of the FQNs of the handled exceptions. | String | No | java.lang.Exception |
Example:
@StageDefinition(name = "Database Error Stage", service = "errorhandlingservice")
@ExceptionHandler(exceptions = "org.hibernate.HibernateException")
@View(target = "internal/databaseError.jsp")
@DispatcherMode(authenticate = false, authorize = false)
public class HibernateErrorStage extends AbstractErrorHandler {
public String getMessageContent()
{
Exception exception = (Exception) context.getRequest().getAttribute(
ExceptionHandlers.RAISED_EXCEPTION_ATTRIBUTE);
HibernateException exception = getExceptionWithinStack(HibernateException.class, exception);
if (exception == null)
return "No Hibernate message found!";
else
return exception.getMessage();
}
}
You can see the optional usage of the DiF provided AbstractErrorHandler, that provides the getExceptionWithinStack method for crawling inside the exception stack and returning the handled exception that triggered this handler.
