----------------------------------------
Summary: Ability to throw checked exceptions without declaring them
Key: LANG-1149
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1149
Project: Commons Lang
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: lang.exception.*
Reporter: Bruno P. Kinoshita
Priority: Minor
Place holder ticket for https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/pull/98
"One of Java's most controversial features is checked exceptions, and most
other languages—including newer JVM-based languages (Scala, Clojure, etc.)—have
dispensed with them. Check out this fantastic interview with Anders Hejlsberg
(creator of C#) on why checked exceptions are a bad idea.
This utility gives users a way to dispense with checked exceptions even in
Java, in a minimally intrusive fashion. By standardizing such a utility and
giving it widespread adoption, hopefully the folks over at Oracle will
eventually give in and drop the feature in a later release of Java. Luckily, it
wouldn't be backwards incompatible to do so."
