Property	Value
Rule ID	CA2200
Title	Rethrow to preserve stack details
Category	Usage
Fix is breaking or non-breaking	Non-breaking
Enabled by default in .NET 8	As warning

Cause

An exception is rethrown and the exception is explicitly specified in the throw statement.

Rule description

Once an exception is thrown, part of the information it carries is the stack trace. The stack trace is a list of the method call hierarchy that starts with the method that throws the exception and ends with the method that catches the exception. If an exception is rethrown by specifying the exception in the throw statement, the stack trace is restarted at the current method and the list of method calls between the original method that threw the exception and the current method is lost. To keep the original stack trace information with the exception, use the throw statement without specifying the exception.

If you're rethrowing the exception from somewhere other than the handler (catch block), use ExceptionDispatchInfo.Capture(Exception) to capture the exception in the handler and ExceptionDispatchInfo.Throw() when you want to rethrow it.

For more information, see Capture and rethrow exceptions properly.

How to fix violations

To fix a violation of this rule, rethrow the exception without specifying the exception explicitly.

When to suppress warnings

Do not suppress a warning from this rule.

Example

The following example shows a method, CatchAndRethrowExplicitly, that violates the rule and a method, CatchAndRethrowImplicitly, that satisfies the rule.

class TestsRethrow
{
    static void Main2200()
    {
        TestsRethrow testRethrow = new TestsRethrow();
        testRethrow.CatchException();
    }

    void CatchException()
    {
        try
        {
            CatchAndRethrowExplicitly();
        }
        catch (ArithmeticException e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"Explicitly specified:{Environment.NewLine}{e.StackTrace}");
        }

        try
        {
            CatchAndRethrowImplicitly();
        }
        catch (ArithmeticException e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"{Environment.NewLine}Implicitly specified:{Environment.NewLine}{e.StackTrace}");
        }
    }

    void CatchAndRethrowExplicitly()
    {
        try
        {
            ThrowException();
        }
        catch (ArithmeticException e)
        {
            // Violates the rule.
            throw e;
        }
    }

    void CatchAndRethrowImplicitly()
    {
        try
        {
            ThrowException();
        }
        catch (ArithmeticException)
        {
            // Satisfies the rule.
            throw;
        }
    }

    void ThrowException()
    {
        throw new ArithmeticException("illegal expression");
    }
}
