Propagate undeclared checked exception #903

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Additionally to Throwables.propagate(Throwable throwable) which wraps checked 
exception in a RuntimeException, how about a
Throwables.propagateUnchecked( Throwable throwable) with the semantics of 
http://www.eishay.com/2011/11/throw-undeclared-checked-exception-in.html?

So let me get this straight: you want to throw checked exceptions without 
declaring them?

...I'm not clear on why that would be a good idea, and it seems to go against 
how Java designed checked exceptions in the first place.

Hmm, the more I think about it, I think it is not good. At first I was 
impressed by getting rid of the additional wrapping RuntimeException.
The "badness" of this unveils when thinking about handling of exceptions, e.g. 
a IOException (thrown unchecked) would bypass exception handling for Error and 
RuntimException, because it is unexpected.

Sorry about that, please close it.
