SpiffWorkflow Exceptions ==================================== Details about the exceptions and exception hierarchy within SpiffWorkflow SpiffWorkflowException ---------- Base exception for all exceptions raised by SpiffWorkflow ValidationException ---------- **Extends** SpiffWorkflowException Thrown during the parsing of a workflow. **Attributes/Methods** - **tag**: The type of xml tag being parsed - **id**: the id attribute of the xml tag, if available. - **name**: the name attribute of the xml tag, if available. - **line_number**: the line number where the tag occurs. - **file_name**: The name of the file where the error occurred. - **message**: a human readable error message. WorkflowException -------- When an error occurs with a Task Specification (maybe should have been called a SpecException) **Extends** SpiffWorkflowException **Attributes/Methods** - **sender**: The TaskSpec - the specific Task, Gateway, etc... that caused the error to happen. - **error**: a human readable error message describing the problem. - **get_task_trace**: Provided a specific Task, will work it's way through the workflow / sub-processes and call activities to show where an error occurred. Useful if the error happened within a deeply nested structure (where call activities include call activities ....) WorkflowDataException ------------------ When an exception occurs moving data between tasks and Data Objects (including data inputs and data outputs.) **Extends** WorkflowException **Attributes/Methods** (in addition to the values in a WorkflowException) - **task**: The specific task (not the task spec, but the actual executing task) - **data_input**: The spec of the input variable - **data_output**: The spec of the output variable WorkflowTaskException -------- **Extends** WorkflowException **Attributes/Methods** (in addition to the values in a WorkflowException) - **task**: The specific task (not the task spec, but the actual executing task) - **error_msg**: The detailed human readable message. (conflicts with error above) - **exception**: The original exception this wraps around. - **line_number** The line number that contains the error - **offset** The point in the line that caused the error - **error_line** The content of the line that caused the error. It will accept the line_number and error_line as arguments - if the underlying error provided is a SyntaxError it will try to derive this information from the error. If this is a name error, it will attempt to calculate a did-you-mean error_msg. Unused / Deprecated errors -------------------- ** StorageException ** Deprecated -- Used only by the PrettyXmlSerializer - which is not under active support. ** DeadMethodCalled ** Something related to WeakMethod -- which doesn't look to be utilized anymore.
