    What is a "Clownfish Exception"?

    Locked Reply Contact
    Q: I clicked in the 'about' dialog box' and got the following exception:

    quote:
    ClownFishException: Exception of type ClownFishException was thrown.
    at ICSharpCode.SharpDevelop.Gui.Dialogs.AboutSharpDevelopTabPage.ThrowExceptionButtonClick(Object sender, EventArgs e)
    at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnClick(EventArgs e)
    at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e)
    at System.Windows.Forms.Button.WndProc(Message& m)
    at System.Windows.Forms.ControlNativeWindow.OnMessage(Message& m)
    at System.Windows.Forms.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m)
    at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)



    What happenend?

    A: You clicked on a button labeled 'throw exception, didn't you? This is intended to demonstrate our exception handling code and error reporting using an exception we created specifically for this purpose. You need not report this exception to the bug forum, after all this is an intentional test/demonstration of the mechanism. However, it is useful as a tool for obtaining information about your system in case you want to report a bug which doesn't cause an exception.

    Should you ever come across a clownfish exception outside this dialog box or even worse outside #develop, you should be very, very worried...
