Constructor Detail

ScriptingException

public ScriptingException(IStatus status)

Creates a new exception with the given status object. The message of the given status is used as the exception message.

Parameters:

status - the status object to be associated with this exception

Method Detail

getCause

public java.lang.Throwable getCause()

Returns the cause of this exception, or null if none.

Overrides:

getCause in class java.lang.Throwable

Returns:

the cause for this exception

getStatus

public final IStatus getStatus()

Returns the status object for this exception.

IMPORTANT:
The result must NOT be used for logging, error reporting, or as a method return value, since that code pattern hides the original stack trace. Instead, create a new Status with your plug-in ID and this CoreException, and use that new status for error reporting or as a method return value. For example, instead of:

 yourPlugin.getLog().log(exception.getStatus());
 

Use:

 IStatus result = new Status(exception.getStatus().getSeverity(), pluginId, message, exception);
 yourPlugin.getLog().log(result);
 

Returns:

a status object
