You shouldn't go throwing things that don't exist. Liable to cause an anomaly, it is.

is that kind of like tricking a dog into running after nothing while playing fetch?

Or naming it "Stay" and telling it to "come here" all the time?

In .NET I'm pretty sure it would simply generate a NullReferenceException (analogous to NullPointerException in Java) in the stack frame in which the "throw null" existed which could bubble up to a higher stack frame with the appropriate handler.

Is that it?
