Why else would you care what the return value from a method that throws an exception is. If you are not interested in it then why bother to concern yourself with it in the first place, it's pretty simple really. If you want to see some value the use a debug statement or wrap it in the exception. Examining anything other than the exception in an exceptional situation doesn't compute. > Personally I'm chasing down a few bugs and got useful advice from > technically competent people like Patricia that ruled out some of the > more crazy options I was considering.
