Throw custom exception from Java action

1

Hello, I have custom exception which contains error code and some other information, I want to throw this exception from java action, and I want to handle it from mendix & use the custom values, for example: there is something called $lastErrorMessage. I want to use my own, like $errorCode (which is not available by default). Best regards. Bassel Kh.

In the community commons there is a java action that will throw an exeception when called. You could have a look at that to provide the java action with your error data and then use that as the action.

Why not always give also your own error code back to Mendix as a mendixObject? You only have to modify all your exceptions in java so that you then also return the mendixObjects.

Maybe you can put in- and parse the errorcode from the exception message? (You can use a dedicated microflow / java action with basic string operations for that.
