Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-15266:
----------------------------------------
I have seen many a places in our code base, we have catch of Throwable..
> add precommit check for "catch Throwable"
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-15266
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15266
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: test
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
> Priority: Minor
>
> Catching Throwable is usually incorrect because it gets all of the Error
> derived problems, like ThreadDeath, OutOfMemoryError, VM malfunctions, linker
> problems, etc.
> I was surprised to see findbugs did not flag catching throwable in the
> patches on HBASE-9393. We should add a precommit check that looks expressly
> for it, in our "hbase antipatterns" test plugin.
