José, RuntimeException means java.lang.RuntimeException. The statement should say that all exceptions must inherit from either DrmaaException or java.lang.RuntimeException. I will add a tracker to fix that in the spec. (I've already fixed it in my copy.) That mistake was an oversight after removing the DrmaaRuntimeException. Daniel José Herrera Sanz wrote:

Dear All,

We are currently developing an implementation of the DRMAA JAVA Binding 1.0. The section 5.10 of last specification indicates that the exceptions in the JAVA language binding MUST inherit from the DrmaaException class. However, in the section 5.10.1 the DRMAA exception hierarchy includes the RunTimeException and org.ggf.drmaa.InternalException that inherites from RunTimeException.

Is there a mistake in the specification?
