public class DmtException extends Exception
Checked exception received when a DMT operation fails. Beside the exception message, a DmtException always contains an error code (one of the constants specified in this class), and may optionally contain the URI of the related node, and information about the cause of the exception.

Some of the error codes defined in this class have a corresponding error code defined in OMA DM, in these cases the name and numerical value from OMA DM is used. Error codes without counterparts in OMA DM were given numbers from a different range, starting from 1.

The cause of the exception (if specified) can either be a single Throwable instance, or a list of such instances if several problems occurred during the execution of a method. An example for the latter is the close method of DmtSession that tries to close multiple plugins, and has to report the exceptions of all failures.

Each constructor has two variants, one accepts a String node URI, the other accepts a String[] node path. The former is used by the DmtAdmin implementation, the latter by the plugins, who receive the node URI as an array of segment names. The constructors are otherwise identical.

Getter methods are provided to retrieve the values of the additional parameters, and the printStackTrace(PrintWriter) method is extended to print the stack trace of all causing throwables as well.

  • Field Details

    • UNAUTHORIZED

      public static final int UNAUTHORIZED
      The originator's authentication credentials specify a principal with insufficient rights to complete the command.

      This status code is used as response to device originated sessions if the remote management server cannot authorize the device to perform the requested operation.

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 401 "Unauthorized".

      See Also:

    • NODE_NOT_FOUND

      public static final int NODE_NOT_FOUND
      The requested target node was not found. No indication is given as to whether this is a temporary or permanent condition, unless otherwise noted.

      This is only used when the requested node name is valid, otherwise the more specific error codes URI_TOO_LONG or INVALID_URI are used. This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 404 "Not Found".

      See Also:

    • COMMAND_NOT_ALLOWED

      public static final int COMMAND_NOT_ALLOWED
      The requested command is not allowed on the target node. This includes the following situations:
      • an interior node operation is requested for a leaf node, or vice versa (e.g. trying to retrieve the children of a leaf node)
      • an attempt is made to create a node where the parent is a leaf node
      • an attempt is made to rename or delete the root node of the tree
      • an attempt is made to rename or delete the root node of the session
      • a write operation (other than setting the ACL) is performed in a non-atomic write session on a node provided by a plugin that is read-only or does not support non-atomic writing
      • a node is copied to its descendant
      • the ACL of the root node is changed not to include Add rights for all principals

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 405 "Command not allowed".

      See Also:

    • FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED

      public static final int FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED
      The requested command failed because an optional feature required by the command is not supported. For example, opening an atomic session might return this error code if the DmtAdmin implementation does not support transactions. Similarly, accessing the optional node properties (Title, Timestamp, Version, Size) might not succeed if either the DmtAdmin implementation or the underlying plugin does not support the property.

      When getting or setting values for interior nodes (an optional optimization feature), a plugin can use this error code to indicate that the given interior node does not support values.

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 406 "Optional feature not supported".

      See Also:

    • LIMIT_EXCEEDED

      public static final int LIMIT_EXCEEDED
      The requested operation failed because a specific limit was exceeded, e.g. if a requested resource exceeds a size limit.

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 413 "Request entity too large".

      Since:
      2.0
      See Also:

    • URI_TOO_LONG

      public static final int URI_TOO_LONG
      The requested command failed because the target URI is too long for what the recipient is able or willing to process.

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 414 "URI too long".

      See Also:

    • NODE_ALREADY_EXISTS

      public static final int NODE_ALREADY_EXISTS
      The requested node creation operation failed because the target already exists. This can occur if the node is created directly (with one of the create... methods), or indirectly (during a copy operation).

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 418 "Already exists".

      See Also:

    • PERMISSION_DENIED

      public static final int PERMISSION_DENIED
      The requested command failed because the principal associated with the session does not have adequate access control permissions (ACL) on the target. This can only appear in case of remote sessions, i.e. if the session is associated with an authenticated principal.

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 425 "Permission denied".

      See Also:

    • COMMAND_FAILED

      public static final int COMMAND_FAILED
      The recipient encountered an error which prevented it from fulfilling the request.

      This error code is only used in situations not covered by any of the other error codes that a method may use. Some methods specify more specific error situations for this code, but it can generally be used for any unexpected condition that causes the command to fail.

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 500 "Command Failed".

      See Also:

    • DATA_STORE_FAILURE

      public static final int DATA_STORE_FAILURE
      An error related to the recipient data store occurred while processing the request. This error code may be thrown by any of the methods accessing the tree, but whether it is really used depends on the implementation, and the data store it uses.

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 510 "Data store failure".

      See Also:

    • ROLLBACK_FAILED

      public static final int ROLLBACK_FAILED
      The rollback command was not completed successfully. The tree might be in an inconsistent state after this error.

      This error code corresponds to the OMA DM response status code 516 "Atomic roll back failed".

      See Also:

    • REMOTE_ERROR

      public static final int REMOTE_ERROR
      A device initiated remote operation failed. This is used when the protocol adapter fails to send an alert for any reason.

      Alert routing errors (that occur while looking for the proper protocol adapter to use) are indicated by ALERT_NOT_ROUTED, this code is only for errors encountered while sending the routed alert. This error code does not correspond to any OMA DM response status code. It should be translated to the code 500 "Command Failed" when transferring over OMA DM.

      See Also:

    • METADATA_MISMATCH

      public static final int METADATA_MISMATCH
      Operation failed because of meta data restrictions. This covers any attempted deviation from the parameters defined by the MetaNode objects of the affected nodes, for example in the following situations:
      • creating, deleting or renaming a permanent node, or modifying its type
      • creating an interior node where the meta-node defines it as a leaf, or vice versa
      • any operation on a node which does not have the required access type (e.g. executing a node that lacks the MetaNode.CMD_EXECUTE access type)
      • any node creation or deletion that would violate the cardinality constraints
      • any leaf node value setting that would violate the allowed formats, values, mime types, etc.
      • any node creation that would violate the allowed node names

      This error code can also be used to indicate any other meta data violation, even if it cannot be described by the MetaNode class. For example, detecting a multi-node constraint violation while committing an atomic session should result in this error.

      This error code does not correspond to any OMA DM response status code. It should be translated to the code 405 "Command not allowed" when transferring over OMA DM.

      See Also:

    • INVALID_URI

      public static final int INVALID_URI
      The requested command failed because the target URI or node name is null or syntactically invalid. This covers the following cases:
      • the URI or node name ends with the '\' or '/' character
      • the URI is an empty string (only invalid if the method does not accept relative URIs)
      • the URI contains the segment "." at a position other than the beginning of the URI
      • the node name is ".." or the URI contains such a segment
      • the node name contains an unescaped '/' character

      See the Uri.encode(String) method for support on escaping invalid characters in a URI.

      This code is only used if the URI or node name does not match any of the criteria for URI_TOO_LONG. This error code does not correspond to any OMA DM response status code. It should be translated to the code 404 "Not Found" when transferring over OMA DM.

      See Also:

    • CONCURRENT_ACCESS

      public static final int CONCURRENT_ACCESS
      An error occurred related to concurrent access of nodes. This can happen for example if a configuration node was deleted directly through the Configuration Admin service, while the node was manipulated via the tree.

      This error code does not correspond to any OMA DM response status code. It should be translated to the code 500 "Command Failed" when transferring over OMA DM.

      See Also:

    • ALERT_NOT_ROUTED

      public static final int ALERT_NOT_ROUTED
      An alert can not be sent from the device to the given principal. This can happen if there is no Remote Alert Sender willing to forward the alert to the given principal, or if no principal was given and the DmtAdmin did not find an appropriate default destination.

      This error code does not correspond to any OMA DM response status code. It should be translated to the code 500 "Command Failed" when transferring over OMA DM.

      See Also:

    • TRANSACTION_ERROR

      public static final int TRANSACTION_ERROR
      A transaction-related error occurred in an atomic session. This error is caused by one of the following situations:
      • an updating method within an atomic session can not be executed because the underlying plugin is read-only or does not support atomic writing
      • a commit operation at the end of an atomic session failed because one of the underlying plugins failed to close
      The latter case may leave the tree in an inconsistent state due to the lack of a two-phase commit system, see DmtSession.commit() for details.

      This error code does not correspond to any OMA DM response status code. It should be translated to the code 500 "Command Failed" when transferring over OMA DM.

      See Also:

    • SESSION_CREATION_TIMEOUT

      public static final int SESSION_CREATION_TIMEOUT
      Creation of a session timed out because of another ongoing session. The length of time while the DmtAdmin waits for the blocking session(s) to finish is implementation dependent.

      This error code does not correspond to any OMA DM response status code. OMA has several status codes related to timeout, but these are meant to be used when a request times out, not if a session can not be established. This error code should be translated to the code 500 "Command Failed" when transferring over OMA DM.
