25 * A runtime exception that provides an easy and safe way to add contextual information.
26 * <p>
27 * An exception trace itself is often insufficient to provide rapid diagnosis of the issue.
28 * Frequently what is needed is a select few pieces of local contextual data.
29 * Providing this data is tricky however, due to concerns over formatting and nulls.
30 * </p><p>
31 * The contexted exception approach allows the exception to be created together with a
32 * list of context label-value pairs. This additional information is automatically included in
33 * the message and printed stack trace.
34 * </p><p>
35 * A checked version of this exception is provided by ContextedException.
36 * </p>
37 * <p>
38 * To use this class write code as follows:
39 * </p>
40 * <pre>
41 * try {
42 * ...
43 * } catch (Exception e) {
44 * throw new ContextedRuntimeException("Error posting account transaction", e)
45 * .addContextValue("Account Number", accountNumber)
46 * .addContextValue("Amount Posted", amountPosted)
47 * .addContextValue("Previous Balance", previousBalance);
48 * }
49 * }
50 * </pre>
51 * <p>
52 * or improve diagnose data at a higher level:
53 * </p>
54 * <pre>
55 * try {
56 * ...
57 * } catch (ContextedRuntimeException e) {
58 * throw e.setContextValue("Transaction Id", transactionId);
59 * } catch (Exception e) {
60 * if (e instanceof ExceptionContext) {
61 * e.setContextValue("Transaction Id", transactionId);
62 * }
63 * throw e;
64 * }
65 * }
66 * </pre>
67 * <p>
68 * The output in a printStacktrace() (which often is written to a log) would look something like the following:
69 * </p>
70 * <pre>
71 * org.apache.commons.lang3.exception.ContextedRuntimeException: java.lang.Exception: Error posting account transaction
72 * Exception Context:
73 * [1:Account Number=null]
74 * [2:Amount Posted=100.00]
75 * [3:Previous Balance=-2.17]
76 * [4:Transaction Id=94ef1d15-d443-46c4-822b-637f26244899]
