Description

I think I have found the problem, considering the following code:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cxf/dosgi/trunk/dsw/cxf-dsw/src/main/java/org/apache/cxf/dosgi/dsw/handlers/ServiceInvocationHandler.java

Around line 56-57, where it checks whether the arrived exception is
assignable from the method invoked:

if (type.isAssignableFrom(theCause.getClass()))

{ throw theCause; }

Should be:

if (type.isAssignableFrom(theCause.getCause().getClass()))

{ throw theCause.getCause(); }

I tried it out, this way the client gets the declared exception. I dont know
what you exactly meant by providing a patch (I never contributed to OS
projects), but you may check / consider this 2 small corrections.

Cheers,
András
