I'd say Java named them appropriately. While you are right that they almost cover the same intent, error state is not dependent, whereas checked exceptions force a dependency on the caller[1]. They are not quite the same thing. [1] Ish. If we are to be pedantic, technically checked exceptions are checked by the exception handlers, not the exceptions themselves. If you return a 'checked' exception rather than throw it, Java won't notice. However, I expect for the purposes of discussion we are including exception handlers under the exception umbrella. |
