Bug ID: 56681
Summary: List of Exception Management Anti-Patterns and Code
Smells
Product: Tomcat 8
Version: 8.0.8
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Meta
Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
Reporter: ash...@iiitd.ac.in
Code smells are defined as symptoms in the program source code which are
usually not bugs or technically incorrect but indicates a possible deeper
problem. Anti-patterns are counterparts of design patterns and are defined as
mistakes during software development that produces negative consequences and is
ineffective or counter-productive. During program execution, error events can
occur that disrupts the normal flow of the program. Programming languages
provide exception handling mechanism to developers for handling errors and
exception events.
I mined the source -code for automatically detecting 10 exception handling
anti-patterns
(https://today.java.net/article/2006/04/04/exception-handling-antipatterns).
In this issue report, I list the exception handling anti-patterns and
code-smells that I found in the source code. My experimental results
demonstrate presence of various exception handling anti-patterns and throw
light on their intensity. I believe my tool for automatic detection of
anti-patterns in source code and the attached results can be useful to
programmers by helping them correct mistakes and write effective code.
