Compliant Solution (Future<V> and submit())

This compliant solution uses a Future object to catch any exception thrown by the task. It uses the invokes the ExecutorService.submit() method to submit the task so that a Future object can be obtained. It uses the Future object to let the task re-throw the exception so that it can be handled locally.

final class PoolService {

  public void doSomething() {     
    Future<?> future = pool.submit(new Task());

    // ... 

    try {
      future.get();
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
      Thread.currentThread().interrupt(); // Reset interrupted status      
    } catch (ExecutionException e) {
      Throwable exception = e.getCause();      
      // Forward to exception reporter
    }
  }
