--------------------------------------
Hi Chris,
I agree with you. On the other hand with the affix rule mentioned, before
LUCENE-4019 we had an AOE, so the additional catch would have been useful just
to throw a nicer error message like "Error while parsing the affix file". That
one has been solved at its source, for now I don't see any other possible
errors but I'm sure there are some, maybe plenty since we support only a subset
of the formats and features.
It was just a way to introduce a generic error message but I totally agree that
the right apporach would be fixing everything at the source.

> Our hunspell implementation is never going to be able to support the huge
> variety of formats that are out there, especially since our impl is based on
> papers written on the topic rather than being a pure port.
> Recently we ran into the following suffix rule:
> {noformat}SFX CA 0 /CaCp{noformat}
> Due to the missing regex conditional, an AOE was being thrown, which made it
> difficult to diagnose the problem.
> We should instead try to provide better error messages showing what we were
> unable to parse.
