Example code:
function doSomeStuff($header, $footer) {
	if (strlen ( $footer ) < 0) {
		$err= new Exception($header, $code);
		throw $err;
	}
}
Generate Element Comment for this function.
Result:
/**
 * Enter description here ...
 * @param unknown_type $header
 * @param unknown_type $footer
 */

As you can see there is no @throws line.

Replace the code:
$err= new Exception($header, $code);
throw $err;

with:
throw new Exception($header, $code);

The generated comment will be:
/**
 * Enter description here ...
 * @param unknown_type $header
 * @param unknown_type $footer
 * @throws Exception
 */

So in case you use the class directly in the throw statement you get a @throws, otherwise (i.e. use variables) not.
