Soap fault questions?

["Hansen, Richard" <Ri...@westgroup.com>]

I have questions about what I can do to genrate faults in Apache SOAP.

1) I would like to define some sepcific fault codes so the client can
identify error conditions. I assume these would extend the server fault code
class and look like "Server.xxxxx"? The spec seems to say that is how it
should be done.

2) I would like to possibly define some added detail for the fault detail
element. I think the spec allows this.

3) How best to create faults in Apache?

As far as I can tell, the only  way to generate faults is to throw a
SOAPException from my service class. I should be able to extend the fault
code and certainly can set the fault string this way. But I don't see how to
set any detail?

Thanks
