Problematic exceptions I saw were coming from `extractWriterTimezoneFromMetadata` below. So maybe we could only wrap ``` this.writerTimezone = extractWriterTimezoneFromMetadata(job, split, gdr); this.writerProleptic = extractWriterProlepticFromMetadata(job, split, gdr); ``` section. Yet I think it is safer to keep it around everything. E.g. I am not sure if `reader.sync` is guaranteed to not throw. Also having it all covered guards as from future changes to this code. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
