Exception handling in spring

[abhi patil]

Hi Guys,

My requirement is for any exception that is thrown i want to trap it in Exception class.
Below is my code for that

	@ExceptionHandler(Exception.class)
	public String handleException(Exception ex) throws IOException {
		return "newjsp.jsp";
	    
	}

In one of the case I throw nullpointerexception but still it doesnt gets trapped in above funtion. Can you tell me what am i missing

First, is the error being thrown in this class? You handler is only going to work in the class it is defined.

Second, try using
@ExceptionHandler(Exception.class, NullPointerException.class)

Hi RandyAvis,

I guessed that but i dont know if i was right anyways thx for your help but i was able to sort my problem of global trapping using old method i.e declaring exceptionHandler in xml


Thanks and Regards
