Does anyone know, do I need to wrap the logic inside my handleRequest function into a try catch block in here? https://gist.github.com/rinnegan/3f65805a2f510519e738c4365b6fe97c#file-do-i-need-to-wrap-logic-in-try-catch-block-L20 I am confused because processor.process(input, output) will throw a checked exception in Java but Kotlin as no checked exceptions so I'm not sure what to do

[nfrankel]

as you wrote, kotlin has no checked exception
but in java, checked exceptions are only compile time
there’s no such thing as checked exceptions in the bytecode
since you compile with kotlin, you don’t need to try/catch

@nfrankel thanks but what if an exception is thrown? Do I need to explicitly handle it in this case or just let it occur silently?

[gildor]

Up yo you, what is better for your particular use case, handle this error or not

[nfrankel]

just as with java runtime exception
it’s up to you
to handle it
or to let it bubble up the stack

Okay thanks
