Mark Giaconia commented on OPENNLP-655:
---------------------------------------
I chose Exception because I didn't think IOException would cover all cases for
what people might do inside the init method, for instance getting a SQL
resource will throw SQLException
> Entity Linker Factory should not throw "Exception"

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENNLP-655
> Project: OpenNLP
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Entity Linker
> Reporter: Joern Kottmann
> Assignee: Mark Giaconia
> Fix For: 1.6.0

>
> The entity linker factory should not just throw Exception. Other components
> just throw IOException during instantiation if something goes wrong. Or
> Runtime Exceptions, e.g. if class loading fails.
> Would it be sufficient to declare IOException?
