Cannot catch error from SessionManagerAdobeHostedServices

Question

I just got the following error in the client:
Error: error getting ticket: [Event type="error" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2]
     at com.adobe.rtc.session.managers::SessionManagerAdobeHostedServices/onTicketError()
     at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()
     at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
     at com.adobe.rtc.session.sessionClasses::SingleUseTicketService/sendRequest()
     at com.adobe.rtc.session.managers::SessionManagerAdobeHostedServices/onMeetingInfo()
     at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()
     at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
     at com.adobe.rtc.session.sessionClasses::MeetingInfoService/onInfoReceive()
     at com.adobe.rtc.session.sessionClasses::MeetingInfoService/onComplete()
     at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()
     at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
     at flash.net::URLLoader/onComplete()
It seems to come from (SessionManagerAdobeHostedServices)
          protected function onTicketError(p_evt:Event):void
               throw new Error("error getting ticket: " + p_evt);
Is there a way to catch errors in event listeneres? Otherwise it's not possible to handle this error gracefully. The global error handler could resolve it somewhen in the future but we cannot jump to 10.1 yet.
The root cause was on our server that most likely emitted an invalid authentication token, so that's not an issue anymore.

Hi Mark,
If you are linking to the source files and not using swc, you can do these changes for yourself in source code of LCCS.
To catch this error as an event rather than throwing as we do by default, you can do something like
var p_error:Object = new Object();
p_error.name = "Give it a name" ;
p_error.message = "Send the message" ;
super.receiveError(p_errorObject);
inside your onTicketError function.
Just look at the code inside onSessionError function in SessionManagerAdobeHostedServices. It works similarly. This error object that you created gets converted into an event called SessionEvent.ERROR ( look at the code inside SessionManagerBase's onSessionError). SessionManagerBase is the base class for SessionManagerAdobeHostedServices.
Finally, since this event is thrown by SessionManagerBase, the connectSession catches it automatically. So, all you need to do is add a event listener to connectionSession to catch this error(look at onSessionError function inside ConnectSession.as ). And you should be able to handle this.
I haven't tried it but rather throwing you an idea. So, give it a shot.
Hope this helps
Thanks
