I didn't come up with the softening exceptions idea until just today when I was coding using VFS. Our project at work uses VFS extensively. I don't mind helping, but I don't think we have a consensus about what we are going to do. We should probably figure out what the plan of attack is before we start hacking around. I really think the exceptions should be softened, because it makes working with VFS a real pain, IMHO. The only place where you'll see a problem in Configuration is where you used to use IOException as a catch-all to catch VFS exceptions too. Otherwise, you can still do try/catch with FileSystemException and those will work. You just don't have to do the try/catch. > Will you be at ApacheCon? > Unfortunately, I will not. We have a newborn at home, so I don't think I should try leaving the wife at home alone right now. :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
