How do I handle errors???

[Mike]

All,

I am capturing a SQL constraint exception in my web service and am
attempting to "throw" it back at my asp.net page so I can put up an alert
box. For some reason I lose the contraint error and the web page sees it as
an exception.

How do I pass back the original type of the exception threw my web service?

Where can I find a good article that discuss's how to handle error
processing from web services??

Thanks
Mike

For interoperability reasons you cannot pass the original exception to the
caller - a java consumer would have no idea what to do with e.g., .NET
SqlClientException.

You can, however, store information about the original exception in the
Detail field of the SoapException. To see how this can be done, check out
this article:

You can also serialize your SqlConstraintError in the detail of the
SoapException and deserialized it on your aspx. page
