How would they subclass? The commons math code will be throwing these exceptions themselves, no? They wouldn't be able to tell commons math to throw a specific type of exception class that they wrote.
I agree that the default case (the JDK's getMessage() method) should work so that nobody has to know about the special i18n facilities. But, if you're truly looking to provide a rich i18n framework for exceptions, you need to make it extensible/adaptable. On 2/3/07, Phil Steitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

They could subclass and override translate() or, assuming we take your suggestion and carry the data along, they could access the data and do whatever they want with it. I agree that it is a good idea to persist and expose the key and parts. I just also think it is good for getMessage() and getMessage(Locale) to provide default localization out of the box. Phil
