Similar to the "Coding Horrors" forum how about a "Stupid Questions" forum? We could post such goodies as this (from C#):
Name deleted to protect the guilty
I am testing a c# application and one of the issues I am finding is the application throws unhandled exception error once in a while which leads to a debug and fix cycle.... Is there a way to get a list of all possible exceptions that can be thrown by the application and the line number where it can be thrown....
I mean, all possible exceptions, and the line number where it can be thrown.... Wow!, that's either some impressive sized list, or some seriously intelligent software!
All those who believe in psycho kinesis, raise my hand.

Good idea though...

How about an "Under 60" forum (the number referring to the IQ)?

I think calling someone out like this is far worse than any question they could ask. Very immature IMO (you get a 1 from me for that). I also wonder what's so stupid about the question. Seems like it could be a handy tool. Cheers, Drew.

If I had left their name on it, perhaps. But I carefully removed it, so they could not be identified if they delete the original post. What's stupid about the question? Only the sheer number of exceptions that could potentially be generated by every single line of every single program written. OK, the exceptions do not occur, because most of us are bright enought to code round potential overflows, underflows, null references, incomplete objects, etc., etc., etc. But a "tool" of this type would either have to examine the code in it's complete form, including actual data, before generating such a list, or include every possible exception that could occur to a given line - which is what the OP was specifically asking for...

I agree. My original reaction when I read the OP in the C# forum was that it was approaching the coding the wrong way round, but then I thought about it for a second and thought "Damn, but that would be one handy utility."
