I was working on a project that missbehaved, for some reasons no exception was thrown even when it should have. Deep down I have found this kind of error handling:

try {     m.invoke(parentObject, paramObj); } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {     new CaseLibException(e); } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {     new CaseLibException(e); } catch (InvocationTargetException e) {     new CaseLibException(e); }

My brain recognized that several exceptions were wrapped into another one, so that’s not so bad. But I had to stumble over this code at least 3 times to see what’s missing…

  1. I fixed a bug once where the application crashed every day at 6:12pm.

    Turned out that someone had stored the number of seconds since the start of the day in a 16bit int.
