Using RoboSpice is there a way to get the HTTP Error Code out of an exception?

Question

I am writing an application that uses RoboSpice. In the request listener onRequestFailure( SpiceException arg0 ) is there a way to know for sure that the error was a result of a

I looked over Spring-Android closer and it seems getRestTemplate().getForObject(...) throws a HttpClientErrorException when a 401 or any network error occurs.

Looking at the Robo Spice for where they catch that exception I found they catch it in RequestProcessor.java in the processRequest function. They pass the Spring-Android exception in as the throwable inside their SpiceException that inherits from Java exception class.

So you just do the following inside your RoboSpice RequestListener to see if it a 401 UNAUTHORIZED exception.

    private class MyRequestListener implements RequestListener {

    public void onRequestFailure( SpiceException arg0 ) {

        if(arg0.getCause() instanceof HttpClientErrorException)
        {
            HttpClientErrorException exception = (HttpClientErrorException)arg0.getCause();
            if(exception.getStatusCode().equals(HttpStatus.UNAUTHORIZED))
            {
                Ln.d("401 ERROR");
            }
            else
            {
                Ln.d("Other Network exception");
            }
        }
        else if(arg0 instanceof RequestCancelledException)
        {
            Ln.d("Cancelled");
        }
        else
        {
            Ln.d("Other exception");
        }
    };

    public void onRequestSuccess( RESULT result ) {
        Ln.d("Successful request");
    }
}
