I think it's OK to throw Harmony-implement subclass of the public
superclass
for some cases? Do you think so?
I agree. In fact it says that in the preceding paragraph:
"Harmony class library code should throw exceptions of the same runtime
class (or a subtype of that runtime class) as the RI, other than in
cases where the RI throws non-public types whereupon Harmony will throw
an exception with the same public supertype."
[I'd replace 'should throw' with 'throws' though]
Thanks a lot, Tim. I will update the wiki page accordingly.
Best regards,

Hello All,
I'd like to update our "Exception-throwing compatibility"[1] to reflect
our discussion in several threads recently. I just created a wiki page
here[2], please kindly comment or update the wiki page directly. If
there is no objection, I will provide a patch for
site/xdocs/subcomponents/classlibrary/compat.xml
Thanks a lot.
