That's funny -- Bruce Eckel talks about how he used to love checked exceptions but has come to regard them as the horror that they are. I've learned to just write "throws Exception" at the declaration of every method.

Pretty sloppy, though, no? And surely the important thing is to have a broad handler, not a broad specification of raisable exceptions?

Yes, it's sloppy, but I Don't Care. I'm trying to write usable code while learning a damnably under-documented Java library -- and I'm *not* a Java programmer in the first place, so I'm also fighting with the Java environment. Eventually I'll add in some better code.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Hmm ... those must be what my bucket keeps bumping over! :)
