Extends: Throwable > Exception

An exception that signals that a SOAP exception has occurred. A SOAPException object may contain a String that gives the reason for the exception, an embedded Throwable object, or both. This class provides methods for retrieving reason messages and for retrieving the embedded Throwable object.

Typical reasons for throwing a SOAPException object are problems such as difficulty setting a header, not being able to send a message, and not being able to get a connection with the provider. Reasons for embedding a Throwable object include problems such as input/output errors or a parsing problem, such as an error in parsing a header.

Methods
public Throwable initCause(Throwable cause) Details
Initializes the cause field of this SOAPException object with the given Throwable object.

This method can be called at most once. It is generally called from within the constructor or immediately after the constructor has returned a new SOAPException object. If this SOAPException object was created with the constructor #SOAPException(Throwable) or #SOAPException(String,Throwable), meaning that its cause field already has a value, this method cannot be called even once.
causethe Throwable object that caused this SOAPException object to be thrown. The value of this parameter is saved for later retrieval by the #getCause() method. A null value is permitted and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.
returna reference to this SOAPException instance
ThrowsIllegalArgumentException: if cause is this Throwable object. (A Throwable object cannot be its own cause.)
ThrowsIllegalStateException: if the cause for this SOAPException object has already been initialized

public String getMessage() Details

If there is an embedded Throwable object, and if the SOAPException object has no detail message of its own, this method will return the detail message from the embedded Throwable object.
