OwlDomain.Common.Throw 2.0.1

Common.Throw

A package that provides non-inlinable helper methods for throwing different exceptions, meant to reduce the binary size.

This package is optional and you can always replace it with your own custom throw methods, if you wish to do so check out the OwlDomain.Common.Throw.Base package.

Usage

Using the provided packages is extremely simple, after referencing them from your project simply use the OwlDomain.Common namespace, which will provide you access to the static Throw class, which provides the static property For, on which you will have access to all of the extension methods for throwing exceptions.

An example of this would be

using OwlDomain.Common;

Throw.For.Argument("message", "parameterName");
// Equivalent to
throw new ArgumentException("message", "parameterName");

There will be cases where the compiler complains that you aren't returning a value, when you use the regular throw statements that doesn't happen, however the compiler will still complain when it comes to methods, even if they are marked with the DoesNotReturnAttribute.

For this reason, each of the throw methods also has a generic overload which pretends to return a value of whatever type you wish, you would use it like so:

using OwlDomain.Common;

return Throw.ForArgument<int>("message", "parameterName");
