Handling errors

All constructors, instance methods, and static methods generate a PDException exception when an error or unexpected event occurs. This exception contains a PDMessages object that contains one or more PDMessages objects.

For more information about messages and message handling, see Messages.

A PDException object also might contain a wrapped exception thrown by another Java™ component. Information about this wrapped exception can be obtained using the methods of the PDException object.

The IBM Verify Identity Access for Web: Error Message Reference contains a list of the messages issued by Verify Identity Access along with an explanation of the message and the suggested corrective action.
