The catch clause is permitted by exception ERR08-J-EX0 in ERR08-J. Do not catch NullPointerException or any of its ancestors because it serves as a general filter passing exceptions to the MyExceptionReporter class, which is dedicated to safely reporting exceptions as recommended by ERR00-J. Do not suppress or ignore checked exceptions. Although this code only throws IllegalArgumentException, the catch clause is general enough to handle any exception in case the try block should be modified to throw other exceptions.
