CollabConnException not being caught by Exception

[JamesNicholls]

Anyone have any ideas why a CollabConnException is not caught by catch (Exception e), i.e.:

try
{
bSibRet = getSiebelOutEtd().postSiebelForm();
}
catch(Exception e)
{
xxx
}

The CollabConnException seems to be generated by postSiebelForm()

James,

postSiebelForm() throws a CollabDataException.
So your collabConnException is coming from somewhere else and even outside your try-catch.

Cheers, Madere. I'm sure it's coming from within the try catch, which onlyu surrounds the postSiebelForm(). The full stack trace, which does contain a CollabDataException as well, is:

Ok,

indead it looks like it is coming from the postSiebelForm().
But it is also clear you have some connection parameters to Siebel wrong ==> connection refused.
I assume your are handling the exception in the catch part with some own logging?
There is not a previuos postSiebleForm() in your translation which is not CATCHed?
I have worked with the Siebel EAI e*Way and got sometimes the same error, but I can not recall if the excpetion was caught or not.

Madere.

I should have explained that, I'm diliberately breaking the connection. What I don't understand is why the try / catch doesn't catch it - perhaps because collabconnexception is not a sub class of exception?

There is coding to handle the exception, yes. I chopped it out because it's lengthy and dull, it catches and throws as a bespoke exception type.
