Hi

I am getting a NonUniqueObjectException while I am trying to insert a row into a table. As far as what is happening, it is happening correct. But I would like to catch that exception and display a message back to the user.

I will paste a sample code, so that it gives a better idea of what I am trying to accomplish.

public String addPhdEdPlan() throws HibernateException{

try{
if(this.getAcademicYear() != null && this.getAcademicYear().length()>0){
if(!isDuplicate()){
Short academicYear = Short.valueOf(this.getAcademicYear());
phdDataEdPlan.getId().setAcademicYear(academicYear);
}
}
}catch(NonUniqueObjectException ne){
throw new NonUniqueObjectException("Duplicate academic Year being added for this Student's Education Plan", PhdDataEdPlanId.class, PhdDataEdPlanId.class.getCanonicalName());

/*facesMessages.add("Duplicate academic Year being added for this Student's Education Plan");*/
}

}


So when I try and add a duplicate record, it should display this message on the screen, when the exception occurs.

I hope I have conveyed my intention properly.

Please let me know if it needs clarification.

Hoping to hear soon.

thanks
Sai
