------------------------------------
Assignee: John Vines
> ZooKeeperInstance constructor should avoid throwing RuntimeExceptions
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ACCUMULO-1694
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1694
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: client
> Reporter: John Vines
> Assignee: John Vines
> Fix For: 1.6.0
>
>
> Currently all ZooKeeper related exceptions that occur in ZooKeeperInstance's
> constructor get propagated out as RuntimeExceptions. We should change this
> behavior to allow for better client handling of configuration issues.
> I think the best options are to either have the constructor throw an
> exception for this (which I'm a bit meh on) or having methods which actually
> need to talk to ZooKeeper propagate a non-runtime exception. We can easily
> wrap this under AccumuloException for getConnector, I think, but
> getMasterLocations() and getRootTabletLocation() would also have to propagate
> an error which would mean an interface change.
