And exception hierarchy is one of the better ones, although some Java
modules err I mean classes take it to the extreme, exception hierarchy
works best with wide trees (roots?) as opposed to the long skinny ones
I've seen many Java programmers produce.
However I don't think the borrowing from Java ends at its good ideas
.... one of the ways we can make P5EE better than J2EE, et al. is
spotting where they are weak and setting those as problems we need to
address. Yes I know this could be considered a bit nigly, but I do
think we need to avoid a copy of J2EE. [1]
Anyway its 10pm on Saturday night and I think my wife wants me to spend
some time with her instead of in front of this computer.
