Is there a VS.NET way to know what exceptions a class is capable of throwing? You can use Lutz Roeder's .Net Reflector http://www.aisto.com/roeder/dotnet It' works great and best of all, its free. > Is there a VS.NET way to know what exceptions a class is capable of > throwing? No, sorry, I'm asking about anything built into VS.NET. > You can use Lutz Roeder's .Net Reflector > http://www.aisto.com/roeder/dotnet [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >> Is there a VS.NET way to know what exceptions a class is capable of >> throwing? Perhaps I misunderstood your question then. I suppose as a blanket answer, I could say that you can use the System.Reflection namespace to find out just about anything you want to know about a managed assembly. > No, sorry, I'm asking about anything built into VS.NET. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > >> Is there a VS.NET way to know what exceptions a class is capable of > >> throwing? Thanks, but no. I'm asking if there is a function of VS.NET that can give me this information. I understand that I can use programmatic syntax using reflection to get this information, but I want to know if there is something in the IDE that can provide me with a list of the exceptions that a class is capable of throwing. > Perhaps I misunderstood your question then.

You have to understand that exceptions are thrown in code. To find them you have to dissect the code. If you do not want to write a dissector (using reflection) yourself, then you will need to use a dissector that someone has written. > Thanks, but no.

I do understand what you have said. I simply wanted to know if VS.NET had such a "dissector" available as an IDE feature that perhaps I hadn't stumbled across. > What you are really being told is no. > [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] >>>> >> Is there a VS.NET way to know what exceptions a class is capable of >>>> >> throwing? Unlike Java you don't declare what exceptions could be thrown. As a result you likely won't find this in .NET (other by than by dissecting the code as mentioned by Stephany). You'll find this though in the method documentation. There is a table with this information in the method description. Patrice > Is there a VS.NET way to know what exceptions a class is capable of > throwing? The documentation on this is sparse to say the least. I'm not familiar with the declarative manner in which Java exposes exceptions, but from what I gather it would be cool if .Net ()'s did the same... > You'll find this though in the method documentation.

Cor The OB doesn't provide an "automatic" way of listing exceptions of a class. You must go digging through the class yourself. > Scott, > > Probably I understand you wrong, however build in is the object browser. > > Cor Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
