Description David Graham CLA 2002-05-28 12:40:25 EDT 
Small request: when you select a code block that does not throw a checked exception, a popup window 
asks if you'd like to catch RuntimeException.  Can there be a "Don't show this message again" 
checkbox on the popup so we don't have to make the same choice every time?  Thanks.
Comment 1 Erich Gamma CLA 2002-05-30 08:51:07 EDT 
we have to inform the user that there is now exception thrown. 

However, the default should be No and not Yes, then you just have to press 
return.

Also there in an String Externalization problem the title shows up 
as "&try/catch"
Comment 2 Dirk Baeumer CLA 2002-05-30 09:36:37 EDT 
NLS bug got already fixed.
Comment 3 Dirk Baeumer CLA 2002-06-07 13:58:51 EDT 
Marking as later since platform doesn't fix 18303 for 2.0
Comment 4 Dirk Baeumer CLA 2002-08-14 08:23:22 EDT 
Reopen for investigation
Comment 5 Dirk Baeumer CLA 2003-02-12 13:26:55 EST 
Added work around for default button. This is now No.

Fixed for 2.1 RC1.
Comment 6 David Graham CLA 2003-02-12 13:34:03 EST 
Instead of catching RuntimeException it could be a bit smarter and check the 
@throws javadoc and catch the exceptions listed there.
Comment 7 Dirk Baeumer CLA 2003-02-12 13:49:51 EST 
This request is covered by bug 18687.
