Exceptions and javac

Hi,

I have 2 problems with my JNI code:

1 - I created MyException class in Java. And my native method throws this using:

jclass JExpClass = env->FindClass("package/MyException");

if (JExpClass != NULL)

env->ThrowNew (JExpClass, "Example Exception");

env->DeleteLocalRef (JExpClass);

The exception is thrown fine. But the problem comes in catching it:

catch (Exception) //This work OK!

catch (package.MyException) //Exception is not caught!

The class path is fine. Explanations?

2 - The same scenario above. Since MyException extends from Exception, I would expect it to be checked for during compile time. However when I remove the the try and catch clause around the Java code calling the native method, javac does not complain when it should.

What's wrong here?

Thanks.

Dhruv
