Class Overview

Abstract base class for HandlerExceptionResolver implementations.

Provides a set of mapped handlers that the resolver should map to, and the Ordered implementation.

Return the order value of this object, with a higher value meaning greater in terms of sorting.
ModelAndView resolveException(ResourceRequest request, ResourceResponse response, Object handler, Exception ex)
Try to resolve the given exception that got thrown during on handler execution, returning a ModelAndView that represents a specific error page if appropriate.
ModelAndView resolveException(RenderRequest request, RenderResponse response, Object handler, Exception ex)
Checks whether this resolver is supposed to apply (i.e.
void setMappedHandlerClasses(Class[] mappedHandlerClasses)
Specify the set of classes that this exception resolver should apply to.
void setMappedHandlers(Set mappedHandlers)
Specify the set of handlers that this exception resolver should map.
void setOrder(int order)

void logException(Exception ex, PortletRequest request)
Log the given exception at warn level, provided that warn logging has been activated through the "warnLogCategory" property.

public AbstractHandlerExceptionResolver ()

Public Methods

public int getOrder ()

Return the order value of this object, with a higher value meaning greater in terms of sorting.

Normally starting with 0, with Integer.MAX_VALUE indicating the greatest value. Same order values will result in arbitrary positions for the affected objects.

Higher values can be interpreted as lower priority. As a consequence, the object with the lowest value has highest priority (somewhat analogous to Servlet "load-on-startup" values).

Returns
  • the order value

public ModelAndView resolveException (ResourceRequest request, ResourceResponse response, Object handler, Exception ex)

Try to resolve the given exception that got thrown during on handler execution, returning a ModelAndView that represents a specific error page if appropriate.

Parameters
request current portlet request
response current portlet response
handler the executed handler, or null if none chosen at the time of the exception (for example, if multipart resolution failed)
ex the exception that got thrown during handler execution
Returns
  • a corresponding ModelAndView to forward to, or null for default processing

public ModelAndView resolveException (RenderRequest request, RenderResponse response, Object handler, Exception ex)

Checks whether this resolver is supposed to apply (i.e. the handler matches in case of "mappedHandlers" having been specified), then delegates to the doResolveException(PortletRequest, MimeResponse, Object, Exception) template method.

Parameters
request current portlet request
response current portlet response
handler the executed handler, or null if none chosen at the time of the exception (for example, if multipart resolution failed)
ex the exception that got thrown during handler execution
Returns
  • a corresponding ModelAndView to forward to, or null for default processing

public void setMappedHandlerClasses (Class[] mappedHandlerClasses)

Specify the set of classes that this exception resolver should apply to. The exception mappings and the default error view will only apply to handlers of the specified type; the specified types may be interfaces and superclasses of handlers as well.

If no handlers and handler classes are set, the exception mappings and the default error view will apply to all handlers. This means that a specified default error view will be used as fallback for all exceptions; any further HandlerExceptionResolvers in the chain will be ignored in this case.

public void setMappedHandlers (Set mappedHandlers)

Specify the set of handlers that this exception resolver should map. The exception mappings and the default error view will only apply to the specified handlers.

If no handlers set, both the exception mappings and the default error view will apply to all handlers. This means that a specified default error view will be used as fallback for all exceptions; any further HandlerExceptionResolvers in the chain will be ignored in this case.

public void setOrder (int order)

public void setRenderWhenMinimized (boolean renderWhenMinimized)

Set if the resolver should render a view when the portlet is in a minimized window. The default is "false".

  • javax.portlet.WindowState#MINIMIZED

public void setWarnLogCategory (String loggerName)

Set the log category for warn logging. The name will be passed to the underlying logger implementation through Commons Logging, getting interpreted as log category according to the logger's configuration.

Default is no warn logging. Specify this setting to activate warn logging into a specific category. Alternatively, override the logException(Exception, PortletRequest) method for custom logging.

Protected Methods

protected String buildLogMessage (Exception ex, PortletRequest request)

Build a log message for the given exception, occured during processing the given request.

Parameters
ex the exception that got thrown during handler execution
request current portlet request (useful for obtaining metadata)
Returns
  • the log message to use

protected abstract ModelAndView doResolveException (PortletRequest request, MimeResponse response, Object handler, Exception ex)

Actually resolve the given exception that got thrown during on handler execution, returning a ModelAndView that represents a specific error page if appropriate.

Must be overridden in subclasses, in order to apply specific exception checks. Note that this template method will be invoked after checking whether this resolved applies ("mappedHandlers" etc), so an implementation may simply proceed with its actual exception handling.

Parameters
request current portlet request
response current portlet response
handler the executed handler, or null if none chosen at the time of the exception (for example, if multipart resolution failed)
ex the exception that got thrown during handler execution
Returns
  • a corresponding ModelAndView to forward to, or null for default processing

protected void logException (Exception ex, PortletRequest request)

Log the given exception at warn level, provided that warn logging has been activated through the "warnLogCategory" property.

Calls buildLogMessage(Exception, PortletRequest) in order to determine the concrete message to log. Always passes the full exception to the logger.

Parameters
ex the exception that got thrown during handler execution
request current portlet request (useful for obtaining metadata)
See Also

protected boolean shouldApplyTo (PortletRequest request, Object handler)

Check whether this resolver is supposed to apply to the given handler.

The default implementation checks against the specified mapped handlers and handler classes, if any, and alspo checks the window state (according to the "renderWhenMinimize" property).

Parameters
request current portlet request
handler the executed handler, or null if none chosen at the time of the exception (for example, if multipart resolution failed)
Returns
  • whether this resolved should proceed with resolving the exception for the given request and handler
