Description Tim Lebedkov 2009-12-16 02:58:25 UTC
If a statement throws an exception that is not handled the editor shows a hint
"surround a statement with try/catch", which just logs the error. It is often necessary to re-throw an exception wrapped in another one. The editor could show a hint allowing to re-throw an exception.

Example:

public void a(java.sql.Result rs) throws IOException {
    // the next line could throw an java.sql.SQLException
    rs.next(); // show a hint here "re-throw as IOException"
}
