file - Does Scala io.Source.FromFile return any kind of exception? -

i reviewing code last time searching exceptions when stopped on line of code:

var list: array[string] = source.fromfile(this.path).getlines.toarray 

i searched in documentation on scala-lang seems none of methods of line throws kind of ioexception... how possible?

edit:

try {   var list: array[string] = source.fromfile("").getlines.toarray } catch {   case ex:exception => println(ex.getmessage) } 

does not print anything, why?

checked exceptions enforced javac, jvm don't know them. , contrary java, scala doesn't care checked exceptions.

look @ source instance, won't notice code dealing exceptions. impossible in old java, require try/catchs or throws clauses.

despite that, scala library author may still want make sure java users check these exceptions, there @throws annotation, let declare method may throw exception throws java clause. make sure keep in mind @throws java consumption.

you may want take @ scala.util.control.exception. contains sorts of goodies dealing exceptions.
