eBugs updated CASSANDRA-15118:
------------------------------
    Description: 
Dear Cassandra developers, we are developing a tool to detect exception-related 
bugs in Java. Our prototype has spotted the following {{throw}} statement whose 
exception class and error message indicate different error conditions.

 

Version: Cassandra-3.11 (commit: 123113f7b887370a248669ee0db6fdf13df0146e) 

File: CASSANDRA-ROOT/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/utils/obs/OffHeapBitSet.java

Line: 49
{code:java}
throw new RuntimeException("Out of native memory occured, You can avoid it by 
increasing the system ram space or by increasing 
bloom_filter_fp_chance.");{code}
 

{{RuntimeException}} is usually used to represent errors in the program logic 
(think of one of its subclasses, {{NullPointerException}}), while the error 
message indicates that {{OffHeapBitSet()}} ran out of memory. This mismatch 
could be a problem. For example, the callers may miss the possibility that 
{{OffHeapBitSet()}} can run out of memory. Or, the callers trying to handle 
other {{RuntimeException}} may accidentally (and incorrectly) handle the out of 
memory scenario.
