Well, as far as this issue is concerned i have made lots of changes to the current code in the repository. In order to be sure that these changes is what you are expecting i would like to ask some questions... First of all, we want the class "MathRuntimeException" in the package 'org.apache.commons.math' to be deprecated so we don't mind if some of the new exceptions that are going to be used are based on the class "MathRuntimeException" located in the package 'org.apache.commons.math.exception'. For example, an exception that is frequently used in the code is "MathRuntimeException.createIllegalArgumentException(...)" [see class "ResizableDoubleArray" in package 'org.apache.commons.math.util']. If the exception above is going to be replaced by "MathIllegalArgumentException" which is located in 'org.apache.commons.math.exception' then i suppose that our goal has achieved. Can someone verify this to me, so as to be sure that i'm on the right way? Also, as Luc has said to one mail there are some exceptions like "MathRuntimeException.createInternalError(...)" [see class "RandomDataImpl" in 'org.apache.commons.math.random'] that can be replaced by the default exceptions that java language provides (in our example the aforementioned exception can be replaced with "InternalError" exception). What should be done in these cases? Are we going to implement new exceptions or should we use the default exceptions that java language provides? Thanks in advance for your time reading this and i would be grateful if i would hear from you!!! Any opinion would be useful!!! Thanks again!
Best regards, Gianannakopoulos Michael
