Subject: [iText-questions] drawImage generated wrong exception if network 
connection is lost


>
> If PdfGraphics2D.drawImage() catches an Exception, it throws an
> IllegalArgumentException (presumably to avoid declaring exceptions) with 
> no
> message or information.
>
> A common cause for an exception here is an IOException when writing the
> output stream to an http response.  Unfortunately, there is no way for the
> caller to distinguish this common (and uninteresting) situation from some
> other "real" problem.
>
> A simple solution would be to use ExceptionConverter (passing in the
> original exception) to "convert" the checked exception into an unchecked
> exception.  The caller would be able to look at the underlying exception 
> and
> see its type.
>
> This is a quick and easy change.  The only problem that I can see is a
> backwards compatibility issue, if someone is looking for the
> IllegalArgumentException.

> I'm new to iText and to this group.  Is this the appropriate way to
