spring integration handle exception after splitter - spring-mvc

I am new to Spring integration.
If I have a request coming in with batch payload(json array)
and I use splitter to split it into jsonobject,
and then I do validation.
If some of the validation failed and throw exception into error channel.
How can I make a response to client indicating some of the jsObject failed
and some works?
not sure handler at errorChannel gonna help since the validation result comes async into errorChannel.
And if I call the gateway like this, how can I construct a validation Result for the whole payload with validation status for each jsObject inside?
Future<validationResult> r = gateway.send(...)
(gateway just forward the request to following endpoint right away)

You have to take a look into Aggregator EIP: http://www.enterpriseintegrationpatterns.com/patterns/messaging/Aggregator.html, http://docs.spring.io/spring-integration/reference/html/messaging-routing-chapter.html#aggregator.
So, all your objects are send for the validation and their results (good or bad) send to the <aggregator> to build a single validationResult for the reply to that gateway.

How can I return a custom reponse for a bean validation error under Open Liberty?

We are using beanValidation-2.0 and cdi-2.0 under Open Liberty 20.0.0.3. This works fine in that Open Liberty returns a 400 Bad Request response containing the bean validation error message when a a bean validation error is detected. I would like to update our application to instead return a custom response when Open Liberty detects a bean validation error. Is there a way that I can somehow "intercept" the bean validation error (or the Open Liberty generated response) and return my own custom response?`
Usually when you get a validation error, a ConstraintViolationException is thrown and you should be able to catch that and create your own response.
If you're using JAX-RS, you might want to do this by creating and registering an ExceptionMapper to handle this type of exception and turn it into a response. There's an example here.
You might be able to do this with a custom MessageInterpolator.
It can be specified via the message-interpolator element of validation.xml.

Spring WebFlux Broken Stream Error Handling

I'm struggling to find any good examples on how to implement error handling with Spring WebFlux.
The use case I want to handle is notifying HTTP clients that a stream has terminated unexpectedly. What I have found it that with the out of the box behaviour, when a stream is terminated, for example by raising a RuntimeException after x items have been processed, is handled too gracefully! The client is flushed all items up until the exception is raised, and then the connection is closed. As far as the client is concerned the request was successful. The following code shows how this has been setup:
public Mono<ServerResponse> getItems(ServerRequest request) {
Counter counter = new Counter(0);
return ServerResponse
.ok()
.contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_STREAM_JSON)
.body(operations.find(query, Document.class, "myCollection")
.map(it -> {
counter.increment();
if(counter.getCount() > 500) {
throw new RuntimeException("an error has occurred");
}
return it;
}), Document.class);
}
What is the recommended way to handle the error and notify the HTTP client that the stream terminated unexpectedly?
It really depends on how you'd like to communicate that failure to the client. Should the client display some specific error message? Should the client reconnect automatically?
If this is a "business error" that doesn't prevent you from writing to the stream, you could communicate that failure using a specific event type (look at the Server Sent Events spec).
Spring WebFlux supports ServerSentEvent<T>, which allows you to control various fields such as event, id, comment and data (the actual data). Using an Flux::onErrorMap operator, you could write a specific ServerSentEvent that has an "error" event type (look at the ServerSentEvent.builder() for more).
But this is not transparent to the client, as you'd have to subscribe to specific events and change your JavaScript code otherwise you may display error messages as regular messages.

How to get the HTTP-Status from a webMethods com.wm.net.NetException?

How to get the HTTP-Status from a webMethods com.wm.net.NetException?
Is there a way to get the http status code from within the catch block of a java service after calling the pub.client:http service?
If you invoke the pub.client:http from within a flow service, you'll notice that it doesn't throw an exception. For example, a "403 Forbidden" error, will not throw an exception. Instead, it will output to the pipeline a header document.
Within the header document you will find the http status:
When you invoke pub.client:http from within a java service then the invocation is suppose to return an IData object. From that object you should be able to extract the status field using IDataUtil.
So, when you evaluate that the status is not OK, you can throw a ServiceException which will be caught by the flow try/catch.
Hope this helps!

Spring MVC Returns Response Before Completion of Controller Method

I have the following method which is returning an incorrect response to the browser before the method is even complete. This is in Spring 3.2.
#RequestMapping(value="/process1/createEditContract/validate", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public #ResponseBody StatusResponse validateProcess1(#ModelAttribute("contractEditForm") #Valid Process1CreateEditContractDTO dto, BindingResult bindingResult) {
StatusResponse response = new StatusResponse();
response.setSuccess(true);
if (bindingResult.hasErrors()) {
log.debug("Errors found. Processing status response");
response.setSuccess(false);
List<FieldError> fieldErrors = bindingResult.getFieldErrors();
for (FieldError fe: fieldErrors) {
response.getMessages().add(messageSource.getMessage(fe, null));
}
}
return response;
}
StatusResponse is a simple object that a javascript function in the JSP reads to generate a Javascript alert stating whether the action was successful or errors occurred. The method makes it all the way through, but as soon as it tries to write the response, I get this:
java.net.SocketException: Software caused connection abort: socket write error
I've been stuck for a day now, any help would be appreciated.
UPDATE
I rolled back from Spring 3.2 to Spring 3.1, and the wording of the error message changed enough to give me more information.
Basically, I'm getting now seeing this:
IllegalStateException: Response already committed
What I don't see is what is causing the response to commit so quickly. Maybe a conflict with the OpenSessionInViewFilter?
This error can occur when the local network system aborts a connection, such as when WinSock closes an established connection after data retransmission fails (receiver never acknowledges data sent on a datastream socket).". See this MSDN article. See also Some information about 'Software caused connection abort.
To prove which component fails I would monitor the TCP/IP communication using wireshark and look who is actaully closing the port, also timeouts could be relevant.
The javascript runs in browser, and your controller runs on server. You cannot pass a complex object from the controller to the javascript without converting it to a textual format such as xml or json.
So you should :
choose a format (say json)
add a produces="application/json" in your RequestMapping annotation
do generate json in your controller method

IllegalStateException:STREAM when calling response.getWriter

This is a method that's used for handle ajax request. So the output is written to the response
public ModelAndView myAction(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, BindException errors) throws Exception
{
//call other methods and send the response as arg
//call getWriter on the response
}
According to this doc, I would definitely have an IllegalStateException if I call getWriter having already called getOutputStream(), so I suspect the methods I passed the response to did this although I don't really see them doing so...
The only thing for sure is that at some point, one of the methods may do response.sendError().
Does this some how call getOutputStream()?
HttpServletResponse#sendError() commits the response and send an error status code. The javadoc states
If the response has already been committed, this method throws an
IllegalStateException. After using this method, the response should be
considered to be committed and should not be written to.
In other words, after you call that method, the HTTP response has basically been sent. It makes no sense to call any of the getOutputStream() or getWriter() methods. Your Servlet container further makes it foolproof by throwing an Exception if you attempt to.
I had similar issues but I had not called sendError(), just setContentType() before that. As per this source, it can trigger the same behaviour:
I am guessing its because you have already opened the stream by
calling the resp.setContentType("text/plain"); method, and are then
trying to get a Writer object. You can either use Stream based
classes, or Writer based classes - not both.
Either remove the setContentType(), or send the response using
response.getOutputStream() method. That should solve the problem.
And indeed, it resolved the similar error for me.
