Talk:Exception (computing)

I'm afraid this new article cannot add anything notable to what's already discussed in the context of exception handling because exceptions in computing are to be handled or are left unhandled. I suggest this be redirected there and that article could always be improved. --TuukkaH 16:45, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

The article does duplicate some of the material in the exception handling article. I would suggest moving much of the material in the exception handling article to the exception article. After all an article on exception handler should surely discuss what a handler does, or might do, not what an exception might be and why an exception might be raised.

 * Wikipedia is not a dictionary. So are you saying you don't see how exception and exception handling are about the same topic? An exception without a handler is a crash :-) As long as one article isn't getting too long and has basicly same topic there shouldn't be need to spread the content to several articles. --TuukkaH 19:56, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

I would go for that. However, Exception is the primary article title. An exception handler being a part of the discussion on exception and should be redirected to that article. Who is going to make the change? You seem to the one who is fired up about it :-)
