13 * @CalledByNativeUnchecked is used to generate JNI bindings that do not check for exceptions.
14 * It only makes sense to use this annotation on methods that declare a throws... spec.
15 * However, note that the exception received native side maybe an 'unchecked' (RuntimeExpception)
16 * such as NullPointerException, so the native code should differentiate these cases.
17 * Usage of this should be very rare; where possible handle exceptions in the Java side and use a
18 * return value to indicate success / failure.
