Description
The compiler does not fail on "malformed" throw forms:
user=> (defn foo [] (throw)) #'user/foo user=> (foo) NullPointerException user/foo (NO_SOURCE_FILE:1) user=> (defn bar [] (throw Exception baz)) #'user/bar user=> (bar) ClassCastException java.lang.Class cannot be cast to java.lang.Throwable user/bar (NO_SOURCE_FILE:1) ; This one works, but ignored-symbol, should probably not be ignored user=> (defn quux [] (throw (Exception. "Works!") ignored-symbol)) #'user/quux user=> (quux) Exception Works! user/quux (NO_SOURCE_FILE:1)
The compiler can easily avoid these by counting forms.
Not sure how to create a test for the attached patch. Will happily do so if anyone has a suggestion.
