I have a Controller like this example:
@RestController
@RequestMapping(value = "/risk", produces = {MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE})
public class CalculationController {
@RequestMapping(value = "/calculate", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public CalculationResult calculate(InputFields i) {
try {
return calcService.calculate(i);
} catch (CustomException custEx) {
throw new HttpServerErrorException(HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR,
null,
null,
getReportLogAsBytes(custEx), //for some reason not working when serialized in Json
Charset.defaultCharset());
}
}
private byte[] getReportLogAsBytes(CustomException e) {
try {
return objectMapper.writeValueAsBytes(e.getReportLog()); //
} catch (JsonProcessingException e1) {
throw new RuntimeException("Unable to serialize Simulation report log to bytes ", e1);
}
}
class CustomException extends Exception {
private List<String> reportLog;
public CustomException(List<String> reportLog) {
super();
this.setReportLog(reportLog);
}
public List<String> getReportLog() {
return reportLog;
}
public void setReportLog(List<String> reportLog) {
this.reportLog = reportLog;
}
}
}
When posting the inputs to the controller and a CustomException occurs, I instantiate HttpServerErrorException using the constructor that accepts a byte array for responseBody. I basically give it a list of String error messages converted to byte array.
The problem is the response body still does not show the list of errors messages I passed to it. I tried looking for examples on using HttpServerErrorException with response body but cannot seem to find any... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
