ERROR HANDLING IN WCS

ECApplicationException :

This exception is thrown if the error is related to user input and will always fail. For example, when a user enters an invalid parameter, an ECApplicationException is thrown. When this exception is thrown, the solution controller does not retry the command, even if it is specified as a retriable command.

ECSystemException:

This exception is thrown if a runtime exception or a Websphere Commerce configuration error is detected. Examples of this type of exception include create exceptions, remote exceptions, and other EJB exceptions. When this type of exception is thrown, the solution controller retries the command if the command is retriable and the exception was caused by either a database deadlock or database rollback.

Both of the exception types are classes that extend from the ECException class, which is found in the com.ibm.commerce.exception package.
In order to throw one of these exceptions, the following information must be specified:
Error view name :
                The view that will be used to display the error. For web requests, the web controller looks up this name in the Struts configuration files.
ECMessage object :
                ECMessage defines the static information related to the reason for the exception. This value corresponds to the message text contained within a properties file.
ECParameter :
                ECParameter returns the errors associated with the application. The exceptions can indicate multiple errors since each part of an application exception represent an error.

Exceptions handling is tightly integrated with the logging system. When a system exception is thrown, it is automatically logged.

Writing user own exceptions handling logic involves the following steps:
1.       Catching the exceptions in your command that require special processing.
2.       Constructing either an ECApplicationException or ECSystemException, based upon the type of exception caught.
3.       If the ECApplicationException uses a new message, defining the message in a new properties file.
