The SOAPFaultException exception represents a SOAP 1.1 or 1.2 fault.
A SOAPFaultException wraps a Jakarta SOAP with Attachments' SOAPFault that manages the SOAP-specific representation of faults. The createFault method of jakarta.xml.soap.SOAPFactory may be used to create an instance of jakarta.xml.soap.SOAPFault for use with the constructor. SOAPBinding contains an accessor for the SOAPFactory used by the binding instance.
Note that the value of getFault is the only part of the exception used when searializing a SOAP fault.
Refer to the SOAP specification for a complete description of SOAP faults.
