How to know if some method can throw an exception

Question

I'm new in a developement for Windows 8 and C#, but I have certain experience with Java Programming.

So, when I try to make some Json parser (for example) in java, I can't do it without use a try - catch block, and this way I can handle the exception, but when I try to do the same in c# (Windows 8) and I don't use the try - catch block it works too, like this:

if (json != null)
{
        JObject jObject = JObject.Parse(json);

        JArray jArrayUsers = (JArray)jObject["users"];

        foreach (JObject obj in jArrayUsers)
        {
            ListViewMainViewModel user = new ListViewMainViewModel(
                (String)obj["email"],
                (String)obj["token"],
                (String)obj["institution"],
                (String)obj["uuidInstitution"]);

            usersList.Add(user);
        }
        return usersList;
    }

}

As I know the right way is to catch JsonReaderException, but Visual Studio never warned me on that. I would like to know if there's a easy way to know if some method throw an exception, like is on java using eclipse (it's mandatory implement try-catch block or code wont compile)

Answer 1

You will have to consult the documentation for that. C# lacks a throws keyword.

The term for what you are looking for is checked exceptions, and more info can be found in the C# FAQ.
