Again, these exceptions should be documented as part of our API documentation. They are exceptions that should _never_ happen. No call from the application should cause them to be thrown, thus they are not part of the API. If they are ever thrown, then there is a bug in classpath. Nevertheless, applications should have the ability to try and continue in the face of classpath bugs if they need fault tolerance.
Can't we just use assertions for things that should never happen? cheers, dalibor topic
