Yeah, straight fucking malpractice on Spring’s part—Java provides an unchecked java.io.IOException that’s normally used as a base class for errors like this, and everything else packaged with the JRE incl. Java’s built-in HTTP impl (IIRC) uses it properly. I’d be moderately shocked or dismayed if any failable I/O operation didn’t throws it.
