[jira] [Commented] (OPENNLP-655) Entity Linker Factory should not throw "Exception"

["Mark Giaconia (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENNLP-655?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13920854#comment-13920854 ] 

Mark Giaconia commented on OPENNLP-655:
---------------------------------------

I chose Exception because I didn't think IOException would cover all cases for what people might do inside the init method, for instance getting a SQL resource will throw SQLException

> The entity linker factory should not just throw Exception. Other components just throw IOException during instantiation if something goes wrong. Or Runtime Exceptions, e.g. if class loading fails.
> Would it be sufficient to declare IOException?
