[jira] [Updated] (THRIFT-3191) Perl compiler does not add support for Thrift::TException handling

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3191?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

James E. King, III updated THRIFT-3191:
---------------------------------------
    Description: 
While adding "make cross" test server support for some other refactoring I found that the generated code to handle testException exception responses does not work properly.  The test says that the code can die with the specified exceptions, but it can also die with Thrift::TException.

The generated code that fails in ThriftTest.pm:
{noformat}
sub process_testException {
    my ($self, $seqid, $input, $output) = @_;
    my $args = new ThriftTest::ThriftTest_testException_args();
    $args->read($input);
    $input->readMessageEnd();
    my $result = new ThriftTest::ThriftTest_testException_result();
    eval {
      $self->{handler}->testException($args->arg);
    }; if( UNIVERSAL::isa($@,'ThriftTest::Xception') ){ 
      $result->{err1} = $@;
    };
    $output->writeMessageBegin('testException', TMessageType::REPLY, $seqid);
    $result->write($output);
    $output->writeMessageEnd();
    $output->getTransport()->flush();
}
{noformat}

If the resulting implementation dies with a {{new Thrift::TException("foo")}}, the C++ client side gets a void back.

Code that allows the test to pass adds support for capturing TException:
{noformat}
sub process_testException {
    my ($self, $seqid, $input, $output) = @_;
    my $args = new ThriftTest::ThriftTest_testException_args();
    $args->read($input);
    $input->readMessageEnd();
    my $result = new ThriftTest::ThriftTest_testException_result();
    eval {
      $self->{handler}->testException($args->arg);
    }; if( UNIVERSAL::isa($@,'ThriftTest::Xception') ){ 
      $result->{err1} = $@;
    }; if( UNIVERSAL::isa($@,'Thrift::TException') ){ 
      $result->{err1} = $@;
    }
    $output->writeMessageBegin('testException', TMessageType::REPLY, $seqid);
    $result->write($output);
    $output->writeMessageEnd();
    $output->getTransport()->flush();
}
{noformat}

Adding this to the compiler output is reasonable, however what the generated code is doing when an exception of another type is thrown seems quite wrong.  It simply ignores the exception and returns an empty reply.  I think it would make more sense here to catch all not-specifically generated exceptions and make a TException that describes what happened, but let the server continue processing.  This would be a programming error on the server handler implementation.
