Custom Exception Strategy in Mule

  Custom Exception Strategy in Mule

Custom exception strategy handles the exception having logic in custom java class.When exception occurs the java class executes and handles the exception.



Mule provides numerous options for handling errors. Faults that occur within Mule are referred to as exceptions; when an activity in your Mule instance fails, Mule throws an exception. To manage these exceptions, Mule allows you to configure exception strategies.


Mule’s default exception strategy — which implicitly applies to all Mule applications — manages errors (that is. thrown exceptions) in Mule flows. When your flows require more sophisticated error management, you can implement one or more exception strategies to construct precise, efficient protocols for handling errors.

  this.logException = logException;

 }

  @Override

 public MuleEvent handleException(Exception exception, MuleEvent event) {

  event.setStopFurtherProcessing(true);


  System.out.println("Exception message : " + exception);

  return event;

 }
