Hi,
What do you think about adding an interface such as
package org.apache.avalon.framework.activity;
interface Executable
{
void execute() throws Exception;
}
The main reason it wasn't accepted last time I lobbied for it was that it was
too like Runnable. However the one difference is that it allows an exception
to be thrown. This is important in a number of scenarios. Most importantly it
will be important in upcoming threading code when I rework it ;)
It will also reduce duplication across a number of projects I work on (all of
which have an equivelent interface). The other style interface I use is
interface Action
{
void performAction() throws Exception;
}
However that clashes with the swing framework so I would prefer to use
Executable if at all possible ;)
Cheers,
Pete
