I have an own ExceptionHandler added to my jsf 2.2 project. web.xml
<factory>
<exception-handler-factory>package.exceptionhandler.MyExceptionHandlerFactory</exception-handler-factory>
</factory>
The exceptionHandlerFactory contains
public ExceptionHandler getExceptionHandler() {
ExceptionHandler handler = new MyExceptionHandler(parent.getExceptionHandler());
return handler;
}
and the ExceptionHandler contains
@Override
public void handle() throws FacesException {
LOGGER.debug("handle exception...");
}
My dummy Converter throw everytime an exception:
@FacesConverter(value = "MyConverter")
public class MyConverter implements Converter {
@Override
public Object getAsObject(final FacesContext context, final UIComponent comp, final String value) {
throw new RuntimeException("error");
}
//...
But the exception is not handled by my own excpetion handler. Why?
I found my problem.
That was not an issue from jsf. I had a PhaseListener in the application, which makes only some of the error messages visible on the page. But this PhaseListener was in the INVOKE_APPLICATION Phase and therefore never executed.
