Handling CORBA object method exceptions

Note

As of ColdFusion (2021 release), CORBA has been removed. You can no longer use CORBA-related features, functions, and tags.

Use the cftry and cfcatch tags to catch CORBA object method exceptions thrown by the remote server, as follows:

Specify type="coldfusion.runtime.corba.CorbaUserException" in the cfcatch tag to catch CORBA exceptions.
Use the cfcatch.getContents method to get the contents of the exception object.
The cfcatch.getContents method returns a ColdFusion structure containing the data specified by the IDL for the exception.
The following code example shows the IDL for a CORBA object that raises an exception defined by the PrimitiveException exception type definition, and the CFML that catches the exception and displays the contents of the object.

IDL

interface myInterface
{
exception PrimitiveException
{
long l;
string s;
float f;
};
void testPrimitiveException() raises (PrimitiveException);
}

CFML
