Michael Bouschen created JDO-759:
------------------------------------
Summary: Spec update to clarify whether methods that are
documented to be hints must not throw exceptions
Key: JDO-759
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-759
Project: JDO
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: specification
Affects Versions: JDO 3.1
Reporter: Michael Bouschen
Fix For: JDO 3.2
If an implementation does not support the method, it should not throw an
exception. But if the implementation supports the method, and e.g. there is an
illegal argument, it is allowed but is not required to throw
IllegalArgumentException. It is not allowed to throw an exception simply to
report that the method is not supported.
