Re: Proposal for creating a CompositeException in ExceptionUtils

I understand the use case. But starting with JDK 7, java.lang.Throwable has    Throwable#addSuppressed(Throwable)    Throwable[] getSuppressed() which would lend themselves pretty obviously to the purpose, at least if the mechanism hasn't been disabled using the special ctor protected Throwabl

Re: Proposal for creating a CompositeException in ExceptionUtils

Sample use cases: 1. Perform multiple operations, some failed due to different reasons. Return a CompositeException for the failed ones. 2. Do a validation on some input. I want to collect all different failures, I can throw a CompositeException. 3. In some cases the exception had occurred earlier,

Re: Proposal for creating a CompositeException in ExceptionUtils

Yes Gary, something similar. However it would differ from IOExceptionList which creates an aggregated message of all exceptions but loses the stacktrace via getCause or printStackTrace. To be precise, this is exactly what I am taking about https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxJava/blob/3.x/src/main/java

Re: Proposal for creating a CompositeException in ExceptionUtils

Would it be like Common IO's IOExceptionList or Commons DBCP SQLExceptionList ? Gary On Fri, Jul 17, 2020 at 11:01 AM Adwait Kumar Singh < theadvaitkumarsi...@gmail.com> wrote: > To be more specific, I meant a util function in ExceptionUtils. Like this, > > ExceptionUtils.createCompositeExceptio

Re: Proposal for creating a CompositeException in ExceptionUtils

To be more specific, I meant a util function in ExceptionUtils. Like this, ExceptionUtils.createCompositeException(String overallErrorMessage, Throwable... throwables) This would return a CompositeException which would contain all the Throwables and whose getCause() and printStackTrace() methods

Proposal for creating a CompositeException in ExceptionUtils

Hi Commons devs, Use case : Ability to a single exceptions with multiple causes. This required in validation or initialization scenarios for example when I want to Validation/Initialization failures for multiple reasons and each reason having a unique cause. RxJava provides something similar
