Hi Folks!

What do you think about re-throwing an Exception?
I think of a situation when writing a complex framework
and one call on a lower hierachy level throws an Exception,
the higher levels should be able to get to know.
If I have to catch it on a higher level, I can't leave the
caught Exception as is just adding my current context to the
stack trace.

Sometimes you need something like that.
VB.NET for example allows you something like:

Public Sub foo()
Try
...
Catch e AS NastyException
...
throw
End Try
End Sub

<?php

try {
/* do something here */
} catch (Exception $e) {
throw $e;
}

?>

Is it what you need?
