Other versions of this page are also available for the following:

8/28/2008

These methods build a <Fault> element in a SOAP message.

These four methods work together in the following way:

  • The startFault method begins a <Fault> element in the SOAP message.
  • The startFaultDetail method begins a <detail> element within the <Fault> element.
  • The endFaultDetail method ends a <detail>element within the <Fault> element.
  • The endFault method ends the <Fault> element.

The server only builds a <Fault> element if there is an error in processing a SOAP request. The server adds the <Fault> element to the <Body> element of a SOAP message and returns this appended message to the client.

  BSTR faultcode, 
  BSTR faultstring, 
  BSTR faultactor, 
  BSTR faultcodeNS

HRESULT startFaultDetail(
