I'm writing my networking packet test setup for my mod. I'm using typical code I've seen several places. Here is the code that gives me headaches:

 

@Override
public void encodeInto(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, ByteBuf buffer) {
	PacketBuffer buff = new PacketBuffer(buffer);
	buff.writeByte(text.length);
	for (String line : text) {
		buff.writeShort(line.length());
		try {
			buff.writeStringToBuffer(line);
		} catch (IOException e) {
			System.err.println("String overflowed buffer.");
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}
}

 

 

This code seems perfectly nice and works flawlessly in the eclipse IDE. Problem is this; if I remove the try/catch eclipse refused to compile without error and tells me I have to include or declare throws on my method.

 

But, when compiled with gradlew build, I get this compile error.

:\Users\master\Projects\mc1stmod>gradle -q build --stacktrace
warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.6
C:\Users\master\Projects\mc1stmod\build\sources\java\us\sequitur\metalmod\network\MetalTestPacket.java:43: error: exception IOException is never thrown
in body of corresponding try statement
                        } catch (IOException e) {
                          ^

 

So, is this a code disagreement between deobfuscated code (in eclipse) and normal code (outside eclipse)? I'm using Forge 10.12.0.1030 as my build.

In the IDE I can see that PacketBuffer$writeStringToBuffer is declared as throwing IOException and it has code in it's body to do just that.

 

I'm stumped.

Should this be moved into support & Bug reports?

 

I suppose no one else has run into this problem. Am I on my own?

I am having the same problem as well, just somewhere else. Did you ever get it figured out?

It went away, that's all I know for sure.

I had updated Forge and cleaned out the gradle cache.
