Class AWTExceptionHandler

java.lang.Object
  org.fife.rtext.AWTExceptionHandler

public class AWTExceptionHandler
extends java.lang.Object

Catches uncaught exceptions thrown in the EDT. This is "magic" that works in at least 1.4 - 1.6 in Sun JVMs. We cannot simply use Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler, since it didn't exist in 1.4 (and it doesn't work for exceptions thrown while modal dialogs are visible on the EDT anyway).

To use this class, call AWTExceptionHandler.register().
