Generic Exception Rules

Important

Connectors continue to be released outside the IDM release. For the latest documentation, refer to the ICF documentation.

The generic exception rules are common to all API or SPI level operations and are described in the following sections.

Framework (API Level) Exception Rules

IllegalArgumentException or NullPointerException

Thrown when the ObjectClass is null or the name is blank.

OperationTimeoutException

Thrown when the operation timed out.

ConnectionFailedException

Thrown if any problem occurs with the connector server connection.

UnsupportedOperationException

Thrown if the connector does not implement the required interface.

ConnectorIOException

Thrown if the connector failed to initialize a remote connection due to a SocketException.

ConnectorException

Thrown in the following situations:

  • The connector failed to initiate the remote connection due to a SocketException

  • An unexpected request was sent to the remote connector server

  • An unexpected response was received from the remote connector server

InvalidCredentialException

Thrown if the remote framework key is invalid

The following exceptions are thrown specifically in the context of a poolable connector.

ConnectorException

Thrown if the pool has no available connectors after the maxWait time has elapsed.

IllegalStateException

Thrown if the object pool has already shut down.

Connector (SPI Level) Exception Rules

ConnectorIOException, ConnectionBrokenException, ConnectionFailedException

Thrown when any problem occurs with the connection to the target resource.

PreconditionFailedException
