RE: getting the stacktrace

["Harnish, Michael" <MH...@fcg.com>]

Tim,

This probably isn't an issue with Apache SOAP.  The stack trace is a
transient property of an exception, meaning it won't get serialized.  I
found a solution to this at
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javatips/jw-javatip91.html - an excellent
article by Terren Suydam.  He recommends storing the stack trace in a
non-transient property of a custom exception class.

Regards,
Mike
