Description Carolyn MacLeod CLA 2004-03-10 12:45:25 EST 
I tried to add a breakpoint to catch java.lang.OutOfMemoryError, but the Add 
Java Exception Breakpoint dialog won't let me. It says that the selected type 
is not a subclass of Throwable, but it most certainly is...
So as a quick experiment, I looked at some of the *Exception* classes that are 
displayed in the list in the dialog, and it appears that OutOfMemoryError 
isn't the only one that is incorrectly labelled as "not a subclass of 
Throwable" - there's a whole bunch of them. I think there's a bug in the code 
that checks whether Throwable is a superclass.

In case it helps, here's a snap of the dialog not letting me add
OutOfMemoryError. Forgot to say I'm running in eclipse build 200403100800 on
WinXP.
