In my opinion one should only catch those exceptions one is prepared to handle. Bear in mind that there are two main forms of exception: checked exceptions and unchecked exceptions (with Exception and RuntimeException being the common parent classes, respectively). My preference is to avoid checked exceptions in my code, and in those cases where an API I'm using may throw checked exceptions, to simply wrap it in an unchecked exception, and then throw it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
