[jira] [Created] (POOL-268) Remove throws from all method signatures

Michael Osipov created POOL-268:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Remove throws <RuntimeException> from all method signatures
                 Key: POOL-268
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/POOL-268
             Project: Commons Pool
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.2
            Reporter: Michael Osipov


Unfortunately, many signatures carry a {{throws <RuntimeException>}} like {{IllegalStateException}}, etc. This is incorrect. A runtime exception never appears in the signature but only in the Javadocs because runtime exception indicate a programming error.

This violates against Java programming rules and Joshua Bloch's Effective Java.
