use_ rethrow_ when_ possible
Details about the 'use_rethrow_when_possible' diagnostic produced by the Dart analyzer.
Use 'rethrow' to rethrow a caught exception.
Description
#
The analyzer produces this diagnostic when a caught exception is thrown
using a throw expression rather than a rethrow statement.
Example
#
The following code produces this diagnostic because the caught exception
e is thrown using a throw expression:
void f() {
try {
// ...
} catch (e) {
throw e;
}
}
Common fixes
#Use rethrow instead of throw:
void f() {
try {
// ...
} catch (e) {
rethrow;
}
}
