Description

Users may use onException to handle failures during processing, and want the exchange to break out and return the built response as-is, just like without using variables.

So variables will store the result only if success, like a programming like

var foo = callMyFunction(exchange);

Here foo is only assigned a variable if callMyFunction completed and returned a value, if an exception was thrown then foo is not assigned anything.
