Michael Neale commented on DROOLS-487: -------------------------------------- yeah in Drools 3, go for it. > Remove some inefficient exception handling > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: DROOLS-487 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DROOLS-487 > Project: drools > Type: Improvement > Components: io > Versions: 2.5 > Reporter: Greg Barton > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.5 > Attachments: patch.txt > > > Using exceptions for flow control can be very inefficient on most modern VMs. > This is because exception handling is rarely optimized. Thus it is highly > preferable to use conditionals to test for exceptional conditions and avoid > them instead of using a try/catch to knowingly trigger them. > I saw some code in org.drools.io.RuleSetReader.resolveSchema() that tested > various locations for the xsd file using exceptions for flow control. > Attached is a patch that eliminates that with identical functionality. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
