Here's some code: <https://trycf.com/gist/26026a9e3ce1827161ea3db19a02723c/lucee5?theme=monokai>

To me, ColdFusion is doing the right thing, and Lucee makes me go "WTF are you like, seriously?"

`lucee.runtime.exp.CatchBlockImpl`?? Seriously?

Lucee has always wrapped exceptions like that

And if THAT object is an instance of Lucee's NativeException class, you'll need to call getException() on it

Then you'll have the original java exception instance

Generally, all the parts of the inner exception are exposed in the wrappers and Lucee attempts to loop over all getter methods in the native class to get special data for specific exception sub types

The biggest annoyance to me is that Lucee and Adobe do it differently.

Yeah but `catch` receiving _the actual exception_ is pretty bloody ubiquitous in languages that have `try` / `catch` constructs isn't it?

And as far as I can recollect, try/catch in CFML predates Lucee, so it's on them that they do it differently (and daftly)

Specifically this:
<https://luceeserver.atlassian.net/browse/LDEV-3458?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiNDExYWU1OTE0OTQ4NDRkODg0NTJlYTg1MjVjNzY4MTciLCJwIjoiaiJ9|https://luceeserver.atlassian.net/browse/LDEV-3458?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiNDExYWU1OTE0OTQ4NDRkODg0NTJlYTg1MjVjNzY4MTciLCJwIjoiaiJ9>

The wrapper is how Lucee bridges java throwables and CFML exceptions which behave as a struct

&gt; and CFML exceptions which behave as a struct
Wouldn't that be achieved by having an Exception type that extends java.lang.Exception that also implements StructInterface (or whatever facsimile of that notion CFML uses)

But anyway, whatever. Lucee is weird. But I already knew that. [shrug]
