[Mono-devel-list] Raising Finer Grained Exceptions

[Raneses, Jason]

I have a quick question regarding the manner in which exceptions are thrown
when developing for Mono vs. Microsoft .NET.  I am working on porting a
number of classes that document that they will only throw a few exception
types, but upon inspecting them with .NET Reflector, they indeed can throw
more than those that are documented.

In addition, I'd like to know if I am able to throw additional exceptions as
I see fit, such as InvalidArgumentException and ArgumentOutOfRangeException,
even if Microsoft's code does not.  I know ideally we're trying to mirror
everything in a consistent manner, however in a lot of cases, Microsoft's
implementation is lacking and it is hard for the anal side of me to not
write something more robust than what they've provided.

Thanks,

Jason
