Showing Exception on jsp page

[saurabhsolutions]

I have made global transitions that catch exception and redirect to a error.jsp page...

<view-state id="CatchException">
</view-state>

<!--The main Flow that loads the home page that is the login page -->
<global-transitions>
<transition on-exception="java.lang.Exception" to="CatchException">
</transition>
</global-transitions>


It gets redirected to an error page in case of any exceptions ,
But i want to show the type of exception on jsp.

My java.lang.Exception is parent of all classes.
Please tell me if i get an exception that is child of this,then how can i display the type of exception on jsp page

Hello

Next time use code tags

Why do you want do that? You should show a customize message, what you should perhaps is show such type in some log file

If my memory doesnt fail me, you should show add first a list of the specific exceptions and the parent how the last option. Be careful if you have your own hierarchy of exceptions
