Andrew Hitchcock commented on HADOOP-5613:
------------------------------------------
The test failure appears unrelated to my change.
If there are no objections, can this be committed?
> change S3Exception to checked exception

> Key: HADOOP-5613
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5613
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: fs/s3
> Affects Versions: 0.18.3
> Reporter: Andrew Hitchcock
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: patch-ioexceptions.patch
>
>
> Currently the S3 filesystems can throw unchecked exceptions (S3Exception)
> which are not declared in the interface of FileSystem. These aren't caught by
> the various callers and can cause unpredictable behavior. IOExceptions are
> caught by most users of FileSystem since it is declared in the interface and
> hence is handled better.
> I propose we modify S3Exception to extend IOException.
