Description Roman Strobl 2005-07-13 14:10:16 UTC 
[NetBeans 200507061800; WinXP; JDK 1.5.0_04]

When I surround with try-catch an exception, I get following code:

        try {
            throw new Exception();
        } catch (Exception e) {
       |}

The | character denotes cursor position. I believe it would be better to get:

        try {
            throw new Exception();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            |
        }

In most cases I am going to execute some code in the catch block and the place
designated by | is more natural for placing this code.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.
