Wrong error reported on parse

Whenever a parsing error occurs, an InvalidMessage exception is thrown but is never reported and the processing continues to the validation method which may or not find a validation error. If, for instance, a LENGTH type field is missing for a specific DATA field, the error reported is:

Invalid message: Actual body length=x, Expected body length=x

whereas the real error is that the LENGTH field is missing.

form the fromString method of the Message class:

try

{ parseHeader(dd); parseBody(dd); parseTrailer(dd); }

catch (InvalidMessage e)

{ isValidStructure = false; }

if (doValidation)

{ validate(messageData); }
