What you do need to do is make sure the diagnostic is specific enough to enable the user to fix the problem, should it propagate all the way back up to top level and halt the parse. If you just allowed exceptions to propagate and didn't catch them at all, I think you'd get a PE that would say something like IllegalArgumentException, and give the file and line number of the whole expression that the UDF call appeared in. We want to be more specific than that. So I would try catch, encapsulate as a PE and re-throw that. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
