Exception handling in Apache-SOAP

response = call.invoke(url, "");
if (!response.generatedFault( )) {
System.out.println("Successful execution");
} else {
Fault fault = response.getFault( );
System.out.println("Error encountered: " + fault.getFaultString( ));
}
This is the way of catching server exceptions in the client side.

To know about SOAP Services that other people/companies have exposed.
