why does the container wrap NestedError around an applicatio

[hau]

I have a stateless session bean with a method that may throw application exceptions. i also have a cactus test to test the throwing of application exception. when the application's thrown, it's wrapped in a NestedError, so that the catch (applicationException e) block fails to catch it.

when i look at rethrow(Exception e) method of org.jboss.ejb.Container, it only wraps an exception inside a NestedError when the exception is an instance of InvocationTargetException. but my application exception is not...or not that i know of. how do i make the container throw the application exception instead of InvocationTargetException?

Don't throw an error then. Throw a valid checked exception.

thanks. i used to have the application exception derived from Throwable, which was the cause of this. After I changed it to Exception, it worked.
