Re: Evil Behavior with Unchecked Checked Exceptions

It can actually be a lot easier than Anders' example. See this http://weblogs.java.net/blog/crazybob/archive/2...
for even more clever implementations. :-)

I propose a utility-class with something like this, and we're good to go:

public static void throwUnchecked(final Throwable pException) {
// Type parameter to Thrower is erased at compile-time
new Thrower().sneakyThrow(pException);
}

private static class Thrower {
private void sneakyThrow(Throwable pException) throws T {
throw (T) pException; // Unchecked cast
}
}

I'm starting to think this might be useful.. Or... Maybe I'm just tired.. :-P
