Nested Class Summary

static interface

Absorb.IgnoredExceptionListener

Constructor Summary

Absorb()

Method Summary

static void	addIgnoredExceptionListener(Absorb.IgnoredExceptionListener listener)
static void	ignore(Throwable ignored) Not an exactly perfect name, but basically takes the given exception and logs it under this class's logger, which is silenced by default.
static void	removeIgnoredExceptionListener(Absorb.IgnoredExceptionListener listener)
static void	rethrow(Throwable ex) Wraps the passed exception and then rethrows it wrapped in a runtime exception.
static void	sleep(long milliseconds) Shortcut to #sleep(TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS, long)
static void	sleep(TimeUnit timeUnit, long units) Sleeps in exactly the same way as calling timeUnit.sleep(units), but absorbs any InterruptedException and exits normally.

Method Detail

sleep

public static void sleep(TimeUnit timeUnit,
                         long units)

Sleeps in exactly the same way as calling timeUnit.sleep(units), but absorbs any InterruptedException and exits normally.

sleep

public static void sleep(long milliseconds)

Shortcut to #sleep(TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS, long)

ignore

public static void ignore(Throwable ignored)

Not an exactly perfect name, but basically takes the given exception and logs it under this class's logger, which is silenced by default. Useful for making sure you don't have empty catch, but you don't have to write a bunch of boilerplate to do something with the tossed exception.

addIgnoredExceptionListener

public static void addIgnoredExceptionListener(Absorb.IgnoredExceptionListener listener)

removeIgnoredExceptionListener

public static void removeIgnoredExceptionListener(Absorb.IgnoredExceptionListener listener)

rethrow

public static void rethrow(Throwable ex)

Wraps the passed exception and then rethrows it wrapped in a runtime exception.
