javax.ws.rs.ProcessingException

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

ContainerException, RequestAuthenticationException, ResponseProcessingException

public class ProcessingException
extends RuntimeException

A base JAX-RS runtime processing exception. The exception of this type is thrown during HTTP request or response processing, to signal a runtime processing failure. Typical classes of failures covered by ProcessingException include

• failures in filter or interceptor chain execution,
• errors caused by missing message body readers or writers for the particular Java type and media type combinations,
• propagated IO exceptions thrown by entity readers and writers during entity serialization and de-serialization.

as well as any other JAX-RS runtime processing errors. The exception message or nested Throwable cause SHOULD contain additional information about the reason of the processing failure.

Note that the exception is used to indicate (internal) JAX-RS processing errors. It is not used to indicate HTTP error response states. A HTTP error response is represented by a WebApplicationException class or one of it's sub-classes.

Constructor Detail

ProcessingException

public ProcessingException(Throwable cause)

Constructs a new JAX-RS runtime processing exception with the specified cause and a detail message of (cause==null ? null : cause.toString()) (which typically contains the class and detail message of cause). This constructor is useful for runtime exceptions that are little more than wrappers for other throwables.

Parameters:

cause - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getCause() method). (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

ProcessingException

public ProcessingException(String message,
                   Throwable cause)

Constructs a new JAX-RS runtime processing exception with the specified detail message and cause.

Note that the detail message associated with cause is not automatically incorporated in this runtime exception's detail message.

Parameters:

message - the detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getMessage() method).

cause - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getCause() method). (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

ProcessingException

public ProcessingException(String message)

Constructs a new JAX-RS runtime processing exception with the specified detail message. The cause is not initialized, and may subsequently be initialized by a call to Throwable.initCause(java.lang.Throwable).

Parameters:

message - the detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getMessage() method).
