[Babeldoc-devel] SOAP: missing Exceptions

[Hans B. <ben...@ch...>]

Hi,

I have just started experimenting with the SoapWriterPipelineStage.
I wanted to find out, what happens to the Messages when something goes
wrong.

To my surprise I found, that I do not get any Exceptions when there are
HTTP Errors like 404 (e.g. due to misspelled URL) or 500 (e.g. due to
calling the wrong SOAP function:
[from the SOAP response: ...]
<env:Fault><faultcode>env:Server</faultcode><faultstring>Internal Server
Error (unrecognized operation: nitf)</faultstring></env:Fault>
[...]).

Is this the normal behaviour?

Btw: I *do* get an Exception when the connection is completely refused:
Error: com.babeldoc.core.pipeline.PipelineException: Error sending soap
message: Error opening socket: java.net.ConnectException: Connection
refused

So to me it looks like org.apache.soap.messaging.Message does not throw an
Exception where I am expecting it - am I missing something?

Regards,
Hans
