Hi Paul,
Ok, you kind of got me convinced and it is also a quite simple modification. I changed from “java.net.SocketException: ioctl SIOCGSIZIFCONF failed: Bad file number” to “java.net.SocketException: Bad file number (ioctl SIOCGSIZIFCONF failed)” like you suggested. The update is in place: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~clanger/webrevs/8158023.3/ Now I finally need a review… Best regards Christoph From: Paul Benedict [mailto:pbened...@apache.org] Sent: Montag, 27.

Typically root cause information is printed last, not first. Another reason not to change the ordering of the exception message is that applications may be looking at existing strings. For this example, if I may presume "Bad file number" is an existing message, I would defer to the possibility applications may be exist that test for that message condition.

I've replaced JNU_ThrowByNameWithLastError with JNU_ThrowByNameWithMessageAndLastError in the java/net coding where I think it is appropriate (mostly in occasions when a SocketException is thrown kind of generically). @Paul: thanks for your suggestion regarding the output format but I would still prefer an output like "java.net.SocketException: ioctl SIOCGSIZIFCONF failed: Bad file number" vs. " java.net.SocketException: Bad file number (ioctl SIOCGSIZIFCONF failed)" as I'm always handing down a message to the new throw routine.
