Hi
I notice that in places Pivot has code like this:
try {
... stuff....
} catch(IllegalAccessException exception) {
} catch(InstantiationException exception) {
}
My preferred pattern for ignored exceptions is this:
try {
... stuff....
} catch(IllegalAccessException exception) {
throw new RuntimeException(exception); // should never happen
} catch(InstantiationException exception) {
throw new RuntimeException(exception); // should never happen
}
Just so that I get a stacktrace in those rare cases, where yes, somebody
did something extra-ordinarily stupid and managed to trigger the exception.
Comments?
