[Pdl] java exceptions from ProductClient.jar

[Jeremy M Fee]

Hi Pete,

Since you are still getting output, this is probably okay.  The  
exception is generated when an EQXML message cannot be converted to a  
CUBE message.  This may be happening with EQXML Moment Tensors, or  
other EQXML messages that don't have a CUBE representation.  I will  
add a story to our backlog to add better exception handling.


Thanks,

Jeremy
