dotnet clr: Hi all,

With .NET 1.1, the following code does not give an error
during compilation:

Type*
foo()
{
if (0)
{
throw 1;
}
}

Note the lack of a possible valid return path! Typically, a C++
compiler will flag this with an error such as "not all control paths
return a value". However, with cl.exe and the /clr switch, no such
error is given.

However the biggest problem with this is its implicit behaviour - when
I call this, it actually returns me a NULL pointer. This just caused
me an hour of hair-pulling :-(

Hopefully someone from Microsoft can verify if this is a bug or
expected behaviour.

Thanks in advance,

Brian,

You'll have more luck finding the right people if you re-post to
