-----------------------------------------
Summary: Have o.a.t.g.driver.ser.SerializationException extend
IOException
Key: TINKERPOP-2179
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2179
Project: TinkerPop
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Kevin Gallardo
Suggestion to have the SerializationException from gremlin extend Java's
IOException. Some other libraries like Jackson do it.
In Java 8 there is a new {{UncheckedIOException()}} that can be created and
thrown at runtime, except it requires the underlying exception to be an
IOException.
Ideally if we SerializationException extended IOException we could do something
like:
{code:java}
try {
GraphBinaryWriter.write(object, bytebuf);
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new UncheckedIOException("Could not serialize", e)
}
{code}
So that the calling code does not throw a checked exception anymore. Also being
able to catch IOException there would allow to be more generic.
