[lang] Bug 14334 NestableException/Delegate is not serializable

[Steven Caswell <st...@caswell.name>]

Is there any objection to making the Nestable exception classes
serializable?  Any particular issues that should be addressed? I'll be
happy to make the changes if there is no objection.

Good point.

Could we have a cloneException method internally which gets hte message,
stack-trace and classname of another exception and when output as our
nested-exception's child, we fake it?

I guess that might have some issues too though. People woudl expect
getCause/getException/whatever on our nested exception to maintain the
same class of exception.

I don't see a problem, other than that you can't rely on the nested exception 
being serializable. That can cause some weirdness when you try to serialize 
the exception and get an exception. Perhaps adding some code to check for 
that, and not attempting to serialize a non-serializable exception?

Exception classes should be serializable.

Sun's base exception class, java.lang.Exception 
implements java.io.Serializable

A couple of weeks ago, I added some serialization unit
tests  in the [lang] project.

No reason I can see. :) Go for it.
