All Implemented Interfaces:

MuleContextAware, Disposable, Initialisable, OutboundRouter, Router

public class ExceptionBasedRouter
extends FilteringOutboundRouter

ExceptionBasedRouter Will send the current event to the first endpoint that doesn't throw an exception. If all attempted endpoints fail then an exception is thrown.

The router will override the sync/async mode of the endpoint and force the sync mode for all endpoints except the last one. remoteSync is also enforced.

Description copied from interface: OutboundRouter

This method is responsible for routing the Message via the MuleSession. The logic for this method will change for each type of router depending on expected behaviour. For example, a MulticastingRouter might just iterate through the list of assoaciated endpoints sending the message. Another type of router such as the ExceptionBasedRouter will hit the first endpoint, if it fails try the second, and so on. Most router implementations will extends the FilteringOutboundRouter which implements all the common logic need for a router.

Specified by:

route in interface OutboundRouter

Overrides:

route in class FilteringOutboundRouter

Parameters:

message - the message to send via one or more endpoints on this router

session - the session used to actually send the event

synchronous - whether the invocation process should be synchronous or not

Returns:

a result message if any from the invocation. If the synchronous flag is false a null result will always be returned.

Throws:

RoutingException

exceptionPayloadAvailable

protected boolean exceptionPayloadAvailable(MuleMessage message)

Parameters:

message - message to check

Returns:

true if there was an exception payload set
