Just drop "checked" exceptions and you can move all of that into warning territory. No need for new syntax on top of it. Further, it doesn't screw up compatibility with existing code. It may cause someone to start getting a warning when you change your mind about "sneakily throwing" something, but it will still compile. (Which is decidedly not the case in your method, no?) in other words. As soon as you "allow code to catch non-checked exceptions" you have essentially already done away with checked exceptions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
