Unable to create jaxb context - WebFault error

Question

Error at method initiateBatchProcess : unreported exception must be caught or declared to be thrown. I have a custom exception class with @webFault annotation to handle jaxb exception as suggested in this link.

My initiateBatchProcess() method is already extending custom exception class but still its showing error

@WebService(serviceName = "WT_WebService")
public class WT
{    
    ResponseInfo result = new ResponseInfo();

    @WebMethod(operationName = "initiateBatchProcess")
      public @WebResult(name = "Response") ArrayList initiateBatchProcess(@WebParam (name = "BatchID")int BatchId, @WebParam (name = "MPTRef")String MPTRef) throws MyServiceException
      {
          return result.initiateBatchProcess();
      }

Custom Exception class:

@WebFault(name="MyServiceException", faultBean = "com.ws.MyServiceFault", targetNamespace="http://wataniya.com/")
public class MyServiceException extends Exception {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    private MyServiceFault faultBean;

    public MyServiceException() {
        super();
    }

    public MyServiceException(String message, MyServiceFault faultBean, Throwable cause) {
        super(message, cause);
        this.faultBean = faultBean;
    }

    public MyServiceException(String message, MyServiceFault faultBean) {
        super(message);
        this.faultBean = faultBean;
    }

    public MyServiceFault getFaultInfo() {
        return faultBean;
    }
}

FaultBean class:

public class MyServiceFault {
    /**
     * Fault Code
     */
     private String faultCode;
     /**
      * Fault String
      */
     private String faultString;
    /**
     * @return the faultCode
     */
    public String getFaultCode() {
        return faultCode;
    }
    /**
     * @param faultCode the faultCode to set
     */
    public void setFaultCode(String faultCode) {
        this.faultCode = faultCode;
    }
    /**
     * @return the faultString
     */
    public String getFaultString() {
        return faultString;
    }
    /**
     * @param faultString the faultString to set
     */
    public void setFaultString(String faultString) {
        this.faultString = faultString;
    }

}

ResponseInfo Class:

public class ResponseInfo
{    
    static Properties props = new Properties();

    public ArrayList initiateBatchProcess() throws Exception
    {
        ArrayList list  = new ArrayList();
        props.load(ResponseInfo.class.getResourceAsStream("ResponseFields.properties"));
        String method1_status = props.getProperty("method1_status");
        String method1_comments = props.getProperty("method1_comments");
        list.add(method1_status);
        list.add(method1_comments);
        return list;
    }   
}

What about ResponseInfo.initiateBatchProcess() method, does it throw any other exception but MyServiceException? — S. Pauk, Mar 18 '15 at 07:49
Could you provide sources for ResponseInfo class cause so far I don't see any problem with the code? — S. Pauk, Mar 18 '15 at 08:48

ResponseInfo.initiateBatchProcess() declares to throw a checked exception Exception but it's not handled in WT.initiateBatchProcess().

Your have either to declare WT.initiateBatchProcess() to throw Exception or catch Exception and rethrow it as MyServiceException(that could be done either in ResponseInfo or in WT class).

EDIT: second option implementation would look like this:

@WebMethod(operationName = "initiateBatchProcess")
  public @WebResult(name = "Response") ArrayList initiateBatchProcess(@WebParam (name = "BatchID")int BatchId, @WebParam (name = "MPTRef")String MPTRef) throws MyServiceException
  {
      ArrayList returnValue = null;
      try {
          returnValue = result.initiateBatchProcess();
      } catch (Exception e) {
          throw new MyServiceException(e);
      }

      return returnValue;
  }

I've added a MyServiceException(Exception e) constructor for simplicity but you could modify the code according to your needs.

How do I create a constructor for `MyServiceException(e)` as it is giving me error. – kittu Mar 18 '15 at 09:24
Here's what I've used: `public MyServiceException(Exception e) { super(e); }` – S. Pauk Mar 18 '15 at 09:31
But of course you could use `MyServiceException(String message, MyServiceFault faultBean, Throwable cause)` constructor. In this case you would need to create and populate `faultBean`. – S. Pauk Mar 18 '15 at 09:35
