stack commented on HBASE-8430:
------------------------------
[~mcorgan] Any opinion boss? I was going to change the signature on
CellScanner#advance to throw CellScannerException (extends IOException).
[~sershe] I'd think the implementation would catch EOFException and return
false out of the CellScanner#advance call?
> Cell decoder/scanner/etc. should not hide exceptions

> Key: HBASE-8430
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8430
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: IPC/RPC, Protobufs
> Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin
> Priority: Critical
>
> Cell scanner, base decoder, etc., hide IOException inside runtime exception.
> This can lead to unexpected behavior because a lot of code only expects
> IOException. There's no logical justification behind this hiding so it should
> be removed before it's too late (the sooner we do it the less throws
> declarations need to be added)
