Gary Gregory commented on IO-148: --------------------------------- This is a good idea. We use such a class in our product as we are not on Java 6 yet. I would migrate to use this class and dump ours when released. The only issue I see is agreeing on a name. 'CauseIOException' is a bit odd to me. IMO, it is not crystal clear what the class does. Alternatives could be: - IOExceptionWithCause - IOExceptionExtended - ExtendedIOException Thoughts? > IOException with constructors which take a cause > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: IO-148 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-148 > Project: Commons IO > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Niall Pemberton > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.4 > > > Add an IOException implementation that has constructors which take a cause > (see TIKA-104). Constructors which take a cause (Throwable) were not added to > IOException until JDK 1.6 but the initCause() method was added to Throwable > in JDK 1.4. > We should copy the Tika implementation and test case here: > http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tika/trunk/src/main/java/org/apache/tika/exception/CauseIOException.java > http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tika/trunk/src/test/java/org/apache/tika/exception/CauseIOExceptionTest.java -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
