Twice this week, I’ve read people write that an event (.net) was ‘thrown’. I’ve always thought that the verb to use with events is either ‘fire’ or ‘raise’. I thought that ‘thrown’ was used for exceptions, but not events (‘raise’ can be used for either).
Does anyone else find it confusing for events to be ‘thrown’?
The standard convention in the MSDN library seems to refer to Raising an Event and Throwing an Exception.
