Joerg Schaible commented on MATH-195:
-------------------------------------
You can also use unchecked exceptions in the throw clause itself (like it is
done e.g. in Class.getMethod() with the SecurityException) with will force most
IDEs to add the exception automatically into the javadoc as @throws and they
will create also often catch cases.
> Inconsistencies in the Exception hierarchy

> Key: MATH-195
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-195
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.1, 1.2, 2.0, Nightly Builds
> Reporter: Thomas Chust
> Assignee: Gilles
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.1
>
> Original Estimate: 0.17h
> Remaining Estimate: 0.17h
>
> I think there are some inconsistencies in the hierarchy of exceptions used by
> the Commons Math library which could easily be fixed:
> - org.apache.commons.math.linear.MatrixIndexException should really be a
> subclass of
> java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException.
> - Either org.apache.commons.math.linear.InvalidMatrixException should be
> checked or
> org.apache.commons.math.random.NotPositiveDefiniteMatrixException and
> org.apache.commons.math.geometry.NotARotationMatrixException should be
> unchecked, but in any case the latter two
> should be subclasses of the former. An unchecked InvalidMatrixException
> should probably be a subclass of
> java.lang.ArithmeticException while a checked InvalidMatrixException
> should be a subclass of
> org.apache.commons.math.MathException.
