Throwing exceptions is in itself trivial. Just invoke throw with an exception object. But when should you throw? Should you create a new exception or rethrow an old one? What should you include in the exception info?
Throwing exceptions
If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough
How to design exceptions
This article will teach you how you should design your exception classes. It’s a follow up to my previous article which told you what exceptions are and their intended usage.
What are exceptions?
This blog has been quiet for a while. I am currently writing a book about localization. Me and my partner is also getting close to release of our new startup. One of it’s features is to automatically catch unhandled exceptions and send them to a webservice for analytics. But to take full advantage of that you’ll have to use a set of exception handling best practices. I’m therefore going to write a set of exception articles. The series will end with the release of our service.

I just read that Mozilla are going to block third party cookies in the next version of Firefox (optional, but blocking is on per default). That’s great. Let’s get rid of the web site/usage tracking that all advertising services has.
Azure shut me down again
Yet again I got shut down by Azure. This time the CPU quote was exceeded just a couple of hours into the new quota period.
I’ve switched to “Reserved” mode which doesn’t have the same limits (which is not said anywhere in the management interface).
ADO.NET Fakes version 2.0
I’ve just updated the API for my ADO.NET Fakes library. The library is a complete ADO.NET driver which is designed to aid you in unit testing.
Azure failed me
(this entry was previously published as a PDF on twitter since I couldn’t access my blog)
I really liked my first experience with Azure. I’m also going to certify myself (I still am). But that’s before things stopped working and I got some not very good support. This blog entry is awas a PDF because I currently can’tcan use my blog. This entry is all about why.
Downdown again
Sorry for being down again. My website mysteriously at all of my CPU quota at Azure = being suspended without notification.
More about that later (or check my PDF blog post in my twitter account)
Moved to Azure
I’ve moved this blog to Azure.
Everything went really smooth. I must say that I’m impressed with the work that Microsoft has done. Well. Almost everything. I got two complaints.
