AxisServlet and the init() method

[Wayne Ross <wa...@crestco.co.uk>]

Hi,
 
I'd like to extend the AxisServlet class and if/when init() fails I
would like the servlet to throw javax.servlet.UnavailableException.
However, AxisServlet (and AxisServletBase) define their init() method as

 
public void init()
 
and not
 
public void init() throws ServletException
 
as per the Java Servlet API javax.servlet.GenericServlet class.
 
And yet the AxisServlet init() method is still called...
 
Should AxisServlet (and incidently AxisServletBase) override the init()
method as specified by javax.servlet.GenericServlet or have I missed
something here? I've searched Apache Bugzilla for Axis-related bugs and
have not found a match.
 
Regards,
 
Wayne Ross
