[jira] Updated: (LANG-585) exception.DefaultExceptionContext.getFormattedExceptionMessage catches Throwable

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-585?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Sebb updated LANG-585:
----------------------

    Component/s: lang.exception.*

> exception.DefaultExceptionContext.getFormattedExceptionMessage catches Throwable
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: LANG-585
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-585
>             Project: Commons Lang
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: lang.exception.*
>    Affects Versions: 3.0
>            Reporter: Sebb
>
> It's generally a bad idea to catch Throwable.
> The getFormattedExceptionMessage method should be changed to catch less; e.g. Exception + RuntimeException should be adequate.
> The Javadoc examples in ContextedException and ContextedRuntimeException suggest catching Throwable; these examples should be changed too.
