----------------------------------

Hi Sebb

Indeed it should - I just tentatively wanted to make sure that IIOE was present 
pre JDK-1.5, which I didnt have the opportunity to check at the time. Looks 
like its been there since the beginning!

> TelnetInputStream swallows interruptedexception as IOException

>                 Key: NET-208
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-208
>             Project: Commons Net
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.4
>            Reporter: Jan Van Besien
>             Fix For: 1.5, 2.0
>
>
> The TelnetInputStream catches InterruptedException in the read() method (line 
> 342) and throws a new IOException without wrapping the InterruptedException. 
> This means that the fact that the read() method was interrupted can hardly be 
> distinguished from any other IOException.
> I use thread interruption as a cancellation mechanism for a thread that uses 
> the TelnetInputStream to read data.
> The read method is not allowed to throw InterruptedException, so I propose to 
> fix it by at least wrapping the underlying InterruptedException:
> catch (InterruptedException e)
> {
>     throw new IOException("Fatal thread interruption during read.", e);
> }
