[Mono-dev] patch for remoting exceptions bug 77647

[Roei Erez]

Hi, 
This bug is about the differences between MS.NET and Mono regarding the
Http status codes returned in remoting using Http channel.
When an exception is thrown at the server side, during the remote
invocation, MS.NET return status code 500, which is 'internal server
error', while on Mono platform the code returned is 400, which is 'bad
request'.
These differences are not only semantic because The type of exception
that the user (client) will get is determined by these codes.
On MS.NET the status code 500 indicates to throw the exception that is
included in the response, while status code 400 causes MS.NET to throw a
System.Net.WebException.
I attached a proposed patch that makes mono compatible with .NET on
these codes, and by that makes the correct exception propagate to the
client on remote invocation.
if no one reject, I will commit
.
