Answering my own question. ;-) In principle you never know where your function is used. (If you share it.) So I wrote a custom exception (which gives a stacktrace). In this way the user only has to check for one exception (it is used in Java 6) and can decide what to do. -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof
