[seam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (SOLDER-290) Rethrown checked exception should not be wrapped within ObserverException

Rethrown checked exception should not be wrapped within ObserverException ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: SOLDER-290 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SOLDER-290 Project: Seam Solder Issue Type: Bug Components: Exception Handling Affects Versions: 3.1.0.Beta3 Reporter: Jozef Hartinger Fix For: 3.1.0.CR1 The spec says: {quote}Otherwise, the exception aborts processing of the event. No other observer methods of that event will be called. The BeanManager.fireEvent() or Event.fire() method rethrows the exception. If the exception is a checked exception, it is wrapped and rethrown as an (unchecked) ObserverException.{quote} Therefore, everytime an exception handler marks the exception to be rethrown, ExceptionHandlerDispatch.executeHandlers() rethrows the exception. If the exception is checked, the CDI implementation must wrap the exception within ObserverException. As a result, the exception is rethrown within the ObserverException wrapper. Everytime we notify the dispatcher using via the ExceptionToCatch event bm.fireEvent(new ExceptionToCatch(e)), we should check if the call raises an exception and if it does raises ObserverException, we should unwrap it. This should be also documented for other integrators to do the same thing. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
