Michael Osipov updated POOL-269:
--------------------------------
Description:
Too many methods say {{throws Exception}} in their signature. This is neither
helpful nor good API design. You never know what the exception is and where it
came from.
An exception translation pattern has to be applied to make code usable, e.g.,
like the Spring project does or Maven with {{BuildException}}.
Unfortunately, this ugly practive has prevailed in several Apache projects like
Lucene.
