Subclasses of FtpException ignore the Throwable parameter in their constructors
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: FTPSERVER-318
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FTPSERVER-318
             Project: FtpServer
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core, Ftplets
    Affects Versions: 1.0.2
            Reporter: Sai Pullabhotla
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.0.3


Currently there are two subclasses of FtpException - 

1) AuthenticationFailedException
2) DataConnectionException

The constructors AuthenticationFailedException(String msg, Throwable th) and 
DataConnectionException(final String msg, final Throwable th) ignore (do not 
use) the second parameter, "th". The parameter "th" should be passed to the 
constructor of super class to have accurate stack trace. 

Also, out of curiosity, why does the FtpException has a member variable named 
"throwable" for storing the cause instead of using the cause defined in 
java.lang.Throwable? Why were the printStackTrace methods overridden?
