public final class IllegalThrowsCheck
extends AbstractCheck

Checks that specified types are not declared to be thrown. Declaring that a method throws java.lang.Error or java.lang.RuntimeException is almost never acceptable.

• Property ignoreOverriddenMethods - Allow to ignore checking overridden methods (marked with Override or java.lang.Override annotation). Type is boolean. Default value is true.
• Property ignoredMethodNames - Specify names of methods to ignore. Type is java.lang.String[]. Default value is finalize.
• Property illegalClassNames - Specify throw class names to reject. Type is java.lang.String[]. Default value is Error, RuntimeException, Throwable, java.lang.Error, java.lang.RuntimeException, java.lang.Throwable.
