public class TwitterException
extends java.lang.RuntimeException

A runtime exception for when Twitter requests don't work. All Twitter methods can throw this.

This contains several subclasses which should be thrown to mark different problems. Error handling is particularly important as Twitter tends to be a bit flaky.

I believe unchecked exceptions are preferable to checked ones, because they avoid the problems caused by swallowing exceptions. But if you don't like runtime exceptions, just edit this class.
