Java.
It's not clear what you're asking.
My comment noted that signalling the possibility of errors to caller (in general) is valuable.
jcelerier objected with java's checked exceptions as a counter-example, as they signal to the caller, but they're shit.
However that's not a counter example, that's just java's checked exceptions being a shitty implementation of the idea.
It's not signalling which has been shown to be a complete mistake, but checked exceptions, more specifically as implemented by Java.
Signalling works just fine and is actually rather enjoyable when done well.
