Exception Adapter

An Exception Adapter useful in order to LetExceptionsPropagateOnlyAsUncheckedExceptions

  /**
   * This adapter will wrap a non-runtime exception inside a runtime exception to allow it
   * to propagate<p>
   * It ensures that unchecked exceptions or exceptions that are already wrapped are not re-wrapped.<p>
   * This is done to shield calling methods from implementation specific exceptions, and is
   * close to the exception strategy used in C# and C++
   */
  public class ExceptionAdapter {

public static RuntimeException toRuntimeException(Exception e) { if(RuntimeException.class.isInstance(e)) return (RuntimeException) e; else return new RuntimeException(e); }

}
