« Previous Version 3 Current »

The Fault Mediator (also called the Makefault Mediator) transforms the current message into a fault message, but does NOT send it. The Send Mediator needs to be invoked to send a fault message created this way. The fault message's To header is set to the Fault-To of the original message if such a header exists in the original message. If a version attribute is specified, the created fault message will be created as a selected SOAP 1.1, SOAP 1.2 or POX fault.

For more information on faults and errors, see Error Handling and Error Codes.



Syntax

<makefault [version="soap11|soap12|pox"]>
   <code (value="literal" | expression="xpath")/>
   <reason (value="literal" | expression="xpath")>
   <node>?
   <role>?
   <detail>?
</makefault>
