Brennon York commented on DL-136:
---------------------------------

As an update, I just ran a CheckStyle with only the check for empty catch 
blocks and, within {{src/main}}, there are only 9 offenders. There are another 
~50 offenders in the {{src/test}} dirs. Will update the {{src/main}} first and 
go from there.

> Avoid empty catch blocks

> Based on the code analysis here :

> Times: Catching exceptions with empty bodies.
> {quote}
> There are exceptions of different types: InterruptedException, 
> KeeperException, Exception, etc.. Even though we think that these exceptions 
> should never occur, if they are captured it means that they are technically 
> possible. In case that they do happen, it will be very difficult to know what 
> is happening and to diagnose the problem. It is very recommendable, at least 
> to add a log trace, in case these exceptions are triggered.
