Class SimpleMappingExceptionResolver

java.lang.Object
  org.springframework.web.portlet.handler.SimpleMappingExceptionResolver

All Implemented Interfaces:

Ordered, HandlerExceptionResolver

public class SimpleMappingExceptionResolver
extends Object
implements HandlerExceptionResolver, Ordered

HandlerExceptionResolver implementation that allows for mapping exception class names to view names, either for a set of given handlers or for all handlers in the DispatcherPortlet.

Error views are analogous to error page JSPs, but can be used with any kind of exception including any checked one, with fine-granular mappings for specific handlers.

Since:

2.0

Method Detail

setOrder

public void setOrder(int order)

getOrder

public int getOrder()

Description copied from interface: Ordered

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

Normally starting with 0 or 1, with Ordered.LOWEST_PRECEDENCE indicating greatest. Same order values will result in arbitrary positions for the affected objects.

Higher value can be interpreted as lower priority, consequently the first object has highest priority (somewhat analogous to Servlet "load-on-startup" values).

Note that order values below 0 are reserved for framework purposes. Application-specified values should always be 0 or greater, with only framework components (internal or third-party) supposed to use lower values.

Specified by:

getOrder in interface Ordered

Returns:

the order value

See Also:

Ordered.LOWEST_PRECEDENCE

setMappedHandlers

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.

setMappedHandlerClasses

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.

setRenderWhenMinimized

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".

See Also:

PortletRequest.getWindowState(), WindowState.MINIMIZED

setWarnLogCategory

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(java.lang.Exception, javax.portlet.RenderRequest) method for custom logging.

See Also:

LogFactory.getLog(String), Logger.getLogger(String), Logger.getLogger(String)

setExceptionMappings

public void setExceptionMappings(Properties mappings)

Set the mappings between exception class names and error view names. The exception class name can be a substring, with no wildcard support at present. A value of "PortletException" would match javax.portet.PortletException and subclasses, for example.

NB: Consider carefully how specific the pattern is, and whether to include package information (which isn't mandatory). For example, "Exception" will match nearly anything, and will probably hide other rules. "java.lang.Exception" would be correct if "Exception" was meant to define a rule for all checked exceptions. With more unusual exception names such as "BaseBusinessException" there's no need to use a FQN.

Follows the same matching algorithm as RuleBasedTransactionAttribute and RollbackRuleAttribute.

Parameters:

mappings - exception patterns (can also be fully qualified class names) as keys, and error view names as values

See Also:

RuleBasedTransactionAttribute, RollbackRuleAttribute

setDefaultErrorView

public void setDefaultErrorView(String defaultErrorView)

Set the name of the default error view. This view will be returned if no specific mapping was found.

Default is none.

setExceptionAttribute

public void setExceptionAttribute(String exceptionAttribute)

Set the name of the model attribute as which the exception should be exposed. Default is "exception".

See Also:

DEFAULT_EXCEPTION_ATTRIBUTE

resolveException

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(javax.portlet.RenderRequest, javax.portlet.RenderResponse, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Exception) template method.

Specified by:

resolveException in interface HandlerExceptionResolver

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

shouldApplyTo

protected boolean shouldApplyTo(RenderRequest 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

See Also:

setMappedHandlers(java.util.Set), setMappedHandlerClasses(java.lang.Class[])

doResolveException

protected ModelAndView doResolveException(RenderRequest request,
                                          RenderResponse 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.

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

logException

protected void logException(Exception ex,
                            RenderRequest request)

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

Calls buildLogMessage(java.lang.Exception, javax.portlet.RenderRequest) 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:

setWarnLogCategory(java.lang.String), buildLogMessage(java.lang.Exception, javax.portlet.RenderRequest), Log.warn(Object, Throwable)

buildLogMessage

protected String buildLogMessage(Exception ex,
                                 RenderRequest 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

determineViewName

protected String determineViewName(Exception ex,
                                   RenderRequest request)

Determine the view name for the given exception, searching the "exceptionMappings", using the "defaultErrorView" as fallback.

Parameters:

ex - the exception that got thrown during handler execution

request - current portlet request (useful for obtaining metadata)

Returns:

the resolved view name, or null if none found

findMatchingViewName

protected String findMatchingViewName(Properties exceptionMappings,
                                      Exception ex)

Find a matching view name in the given exception mappings

Parameters:

exceptionMappings - mappings between exception class names and error view names

ex - the exception that got thrown during handler execution

Returns:

the view name, or null if none found

See Also:

setExceptionMappings(java.util.Properties)

getDepth

protected int getDepth(String exceptionMapping,
                       Exception ex)

Return the depth to the superclass matching.

0 means ex matches exactly. Returns -1 if there's no match. Otherwise, returns depth. Lowest depth wins.

Follows the same algorithm as RollbackRuleAttribute.

getModelAndView

protected ModelAndView getModelAndView(String viewName,
                                       Exception ex,
                                       RenderRequest request)

Return a ModelAndView for the given request, view name and exception. Default implementation delegates to getModelAndView(viewName, ex).

Parameters:

viewName - the name of the error view

ex - the exception that got thrown during handler execution

request - current portlet request (useful for obtaining metadata)

Returns:

the ModelAndView instance
