The following method declaration in Component.java is ill-formed:

    public boolean imageUpdate(Image img, int flags,
int x, int y, int w, int h) {
int rate = -1;
if ((flags & (FRAMEBITS|ALLBITS)) != 0) {
rate = 0;
} else if ((flags & SOMEBITS) != 0) {
if (isInc) {
try {
rate = incRate;
if (rate < 0)
rate = 0;
} catch (Exception e) {
rate = 100;
}
}
}
if (rate >= 0) {
repaint(rate, 0, 0, width, height);
}
return (flags & (ALLBITS|ABORT)) == 0;
    }

The catch block is unreachable, and therefore the assignment "rate = 100;" is unreachable, which is a compile-time error.
