Michael Bouschen reassigned JDO-759: ------------------------------------ Assignee: Michael Bouschen > 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 > Assignee: 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
