Description Markus Kuppe CLA 2013-07-04 02:46:36 EDT 
org.eclipse.ecf.remoteservice.eventadmin.DistributedEventAdmin.handleSendMessageException(String, Event, Object[], IOException) always throws a ServiceException but I can see use-cases where it's fine if events with non-serializable data just get ignored. Thus allow users to configure the behavior (with a system property).
