Why

kotlin.io.AccessDeniedException

isn’t a alias of

java.nio.AccessDeniedException

on JVM? Why creating such a new class that might confused the user that tries to catch this exception?

hm, what's it thrown by?

I’m calling Java’s file IO (AFAIK kotlin has no own file IO except some extension methods of Java’s type), which throws

java.nio.AccessDeniedException

. I wrongly catch

kotlin.io.AccessDeniedException

and realizes it doesn’t work and it’s not an alias (as other kotlin standard types are). Not a big deal but it’s confusing.
