I am utterly unable to control how exceptions are handled in my
application and it''s driving me nuts
The idea is simple. I have a SOAP handler like this.
class RtiController < ApplicationController
begin
wsdl_service_name ''Rti''
web_service_scaffold :invoke
web_service_api RtiApi
before_invocation :authenticate
include SoapMethods
protected
def authenticate (name, args)
#the first two arguments are always username and password
generic_login(args[0], args[1])
unless logged_in?
raise Exceptions::LoginFailedError , "LoginFailedError:
Invalid user name or password"
end
end
rescue Exception => e
n = e.exception "#{e.inspect}: #{e.message}"
n.set_backtrace []
raise n
end
end
Simple right?
If any error gets raised either in the authenticate function or any of
the functions in the included module I want to catch them and re-raise
a new error.
The rescue block never gets called no matter where the error happens.
Next I try this.
def rescue_action
do the same thing above
end
Nope it never gets called either.
So I try this
rescue_from Exception do |e|
n = e.exception "#{e.inspect}: #{e.message}"
n.set_backtrace []
raise n
end
I also tried rescue_from SomeSpecificException and that doesn''t work
either.
I also tried putting a begin rescue block in the included module and
that doesn''t do anything either.
Why is this so complicated? I just want a error handler for
this controller. Is actionwebservice messing with the controller or
what?
P.S. I am using the datanoise actionwebservice.

I''m new to Rails, so I''ll preface this by saying that I might
be
wrong, but you can give it a shot. I believe you have to have a
"begin" and "rescue" within your methods, not surrounding
them as you
illustrated above. So your authenticate method might look like this:
def authenticate (name, args)
begin
#the first two arguments are always username and password
generic_login(args[0], args[1])
unless logged_in?
raise Exceptions::LoginFailedError , "LoginFailedError:
Invalid user name or password"
end
rescue Exception => e
n = e.exception "#{e.inspect}: #{e.message}"
n.set_backtrace []
raise n
end
end
Since you''ll probably have multiple methods that require error
handling, I think you can define an error handling method outside of
each of your other methods. Instead of processing the exception
separately within each method''s rescue function, your rescue functions
would instead call the error handling method. See below. Not 100%
sure this is kosher, but it''s worth a shot...and let me know if it
works, I''m going to be building error handling into my app fairly
soon :)
def method_1
begin
#code
rescue Exception => e
process_exception(e)
end
end
def process_exception(e)
#code for handling exception
end
end

The way you need to think about it is after the interpreter hits that begin, what code does it execute before it hits the rescue clause? It does not for example execute the authenticate method. It does however call the web_service_api method, so if that raised an exception then it would catch it> Next I try this. > > def rescue_action > do the same thing above > end > > Nope it never gets called either. > > So I try this > > rescue_from Exception do |e| > n = e.exception "#{e.inspect}: #{e.message}" > n.set_backtrace [] > raise n > end > > I also tried rescue_from SomeSpecificException and that doesn''t > work either. > > I also tried putting a begin rescue block in the included module and > that doesn''t do anything either. > > Why is this so complicated?
