[Zope-dev] XML-RPC and Exceptions

[Philipp Auersperg]

0. you have to throw a xmlrpclib.Fault instance in the called method at 
the zope side
    this is then correctly thrown as exception at the xmlrpclib client:

raise xmlrpclib.Fault(<errorcode>,<errormessage>)

1. you have to modify the standard_error_message as:
   <dtml-return error_value>

then you can catch the fault at the client (assume 'server' is the 
connection) :

try:
   server.test()
except xmlrpclib.Fault,f:
   print 'fault:',f

hope that helps
