Yes. If you have a method like this:
 public void foo () throws VirtualMachineError, NullPointerException

 public void foo ()
 { ... }
The difference between these functions is merely cosmetic.

Yeah. I wasn't including javax.*. Also we don't have CORBA in the
tree, but there is a CORBA implementation out that you can use.
