Comment on Meaningful exceptions in LCDS/BlazeDS applications using Spring BlazeDS Integration by margelatu

I’ve used Spring BlazeDS Integration with LCDS, but not out of the box. Due to its current lack of support for LCDS, I’ve had to write a small extension for Spring-Flex which makes it possible to use LCDS and also expose data management assemblers via annotations.
If you’re interested in this, give me an e-mail.

Hi,
We have our application in Spring and LCDS. Now we have to use MessageInterceptor for which SpringBlazeDS integration should be implmented. Can we use SpringBlazeDS integration with LCDS, because we get lot of errors which says ‘cannot make instance of _messageBorkerHandlerMapping’?

Thanks for pointing me at this plugin, it fills a gap in my Eclipse toolset that I had been trying to fill for a while without success with lame attempts at this area like coverlipse and codecover, EclEmma is the business.

I usually let the client applications worry about user messages and localization. I pass them an error code and let them handle it as they see fit. There’s no universally good approach. Both approaches are good, like you said it all depends on the context.

Hi,
normally I’m used to let client’s be as dumb as I could. If I can handle something in the backend, e.g. localized error messages, I do it there and let the client only read the string via getMessage. But if you have more than one ways to query with a client, like Rest, remote or webservice, it is more likely to have a error code set and let the client decide what to do with the error (just show or fetch internally something else).

So, it depends

The ExceptionCode is just a custom enum that I created, containing error codes which are relevant to the Flex client application. When the client application makes a remote call and the remoting service throws an exception, the client application can read the code of the exception and determine the action to take based on the code.

Does it make sense ?

Hi, thanks for that article.
I’m currently wondering where the ExceptionCode class is coming from. You do not use import statements, so I’m struggling where to get those classes from. Is it a spring framework flex class or something implemented on your own?

–
exception.setCode(ExceptionCode.SYSTEM.name());

Switch to Maven – why? It gave us nothing but complexity, grief and misery for the 6 months we tried to use it. Anything complex required an embedded Ant script anyway, but with painful limitations. Junking Maven and going back to Ant was the best thing we ever did! Perhaps you could write a follow-up article on the benefits it’s given you?
