Suppose there is a .NET application that uses lots of system events and framework methods. I find it hard to manually read the documentation of each event and method to see if they throw exceptions. Is there a VS tool or a third-party application that runs through source code and indicates which events, methods, etc. are not exception handled?
The most effective way is if the developer of the library uses the document comments to show what exception can be raised from a given method, but the assumes the developer bothered.
As StingyJack said the most likely way to get this information is to use reflection, this will need to be a recursive search and could tack some time, it probably will not show you any COM or Win32 Exceptions but should help you a lot.
Personally i would just wrap blocks of code in a try block and handle exceptions i know about and have a general catch all if it is that important.
