[ajug-members] Groovy and Exceptions

[Justin Fiore]

Hey All,

After Jeff's great talk last night about Groovy, I decided to give it a
whirl.

Can anyone recall what he said about Groovy catching exceptions thrown from
Java calls?

I have my GUI in Groovy and app logic in Java.

The app logic throws an Exception. I want to catch it in my GUI
actionPerformed closure and then display it in a dialog.

Something like this:

button(text:'Refresh LAWN Login Status',
                        actionPerformed: {
                  try{
                      lawnLoginXGUI.lawnLoginX.updateStatus()
                  } catch(Exception e){
                      JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(lawnLoginXGUI.mainFrame,
                              e.getMessage(), "Status Update Attempt Error",
JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE)
                  }
                  })

Where that button is part of a SwingBuilder.

The exception thrown by .updateStatus() isn't being caught by the
surrounding catch statement.

Any ideas?
