IDEA-41316

"Exception immediately rethrown" false positive
1
The "exception immediately rethrown" inspection fires (erroneously) on the following code:

try {
    Thread.sleep(aWhile);
} catch (InterruptedException ex) {
    if (acknowledgeInterruptAndStop()) throw ex;
}


The method {{acknowledgeInterruptAndStop}} implements the thread termination policy. It doesn't seem to me that this inspection should fire if the exception is conditionally rethrown.



Environment: Windows XP SP2.

other sample :
@SuppressWarnings({"CaughtExceptionImmediatelyRethrown"}) protected static Method getActionMethod(final Class<?> actionClass, final String methodName) throws NoSuchMethodException { Method method; try { method = actionClass.getMethod(methodName, NO_PARAMS); } catch (NoSuchMethodException e) { // hmm -- OK, try doXxx instead try { final String altMethodName = "do" + methodName.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase() + methodName.substring(1); method = actionClass.getMethod(altMethodName, NO_PARAMS); } catch (NoSuchMethodException e1) { // throw the original one throw e; } } return method; }

It is far from being immediately rethrown ...
