                    throwing the previous exception

Within a catch block e.g catch(ApplicationException ae) if you have a nested
try/catch block with a catch(Exception){throw;} the ApplicationException is
thrown instead of the Exception caught by catch(Exception)

            try
            {
                throw new ApplicationException();
            }
            catch (ApplicationException ae)
            {
                try
                {
                    throw new IOException();
                }
                catch (Exception)
                {
                    throw;
                }
            } 

So in the above case, in windows .NET, the IOException is thrown but in mono on
unix, the ApplicationException is thrown
