MalformedRequestContentRejection - typed error messages

[Tim Pigden]

Hi

I have custom unmarshaller

I handle the output with 

case MalformedRequestContentRejection(msg, causeOpt) 

...

msg is a string

causeOpt is an Option[Throwable]

I want to pass typed data to this rejection handler.

If I could throw a typed exception somehow, I could match on causeOpt

But causeOpt is always None

So is there a way to pass typed data through to the Rejection message?

Hi Tim,

I'm sorry but I don't quite get what you're after here?

Since you never know where your handler will be used, there is no way to have it strictly typed.

The exception handler should match on the type you're expecting and then do stuff with it.

The problem I have is whatever exception I throw nothing shows up in causeOpt

So it looks like there has been provision to send somethig back via causeOpt but I always get a return of None - hence I can't pattern match

I had assumed from the api signatures, that throwing a typed exception would result in the causeOpt being populated with Some(MyTypedException)
