Description Jeremy CLA 2003-07-22 15:21:02 EDT 
I find that through my refactoring I'll modify what Exceptions I am throwing 
pretty often. Afterwards, I'll spend weeks finding areas where an exception is 
required to be handled, but no longer actually thrown.  I'd like to see this 
as as some sort of compiler option to check for these instances, if it is 
possible to check for.

dup of bug 22976
Comment 2 Philipe Mulet CLA 2003-07-23 04:58:55 EDT 
Indeed, this would be a valuable addition to the set of optional warnings. But 
like unused arguments, there are cases where unused exceptions are quite 
informative...

Will see how it goes for 3.0.
