throw and Throw ex

 static void Main(string[] args) {
                try {
                        ThrowException1(); // line 19
                } catch (Exception x) {
                        Console.WriteLine("Exception 1:");
                        Console.WriteLine(x.StackTrace);
                }
                try {
                        ThrowException2(); // line 25
                } catch (Exception x) {
                        Console.WriteLine("Exception 2:");
                        Console.WriteLine(x.StackTrace);
                }
        }

        private static void ThrowException1() {
                try {
                        DivByZero(); // line 34
                } catch {
                        throw; // line 36
                }
        }
        private static void ThrowException2() {
                try {
                        DivByZero(); // line 41
                } catch (Exception ex) {
                        throw ex; // line 43
                }
        }

        private static void DivByZero() {
                int x = 0;
                int y = 1 / x; // line 49
        }

and here is the output:

    Exception 1:
   at UnitTester.Program.DivByZero() in <snip>\Dev\UnitTester\Program.cs:line 49
   at UnitTester.Program.ThrowException1() in <snip>\Dev\UnitTester\Program.cs:line 36
   at UnitTester.Program.TestExceptions() in <snip>\Dev\UnitTester\Program.cs:line 19

Exception 2:
   at UnitTester.Program.ThrowException2() in <snip>\Dev\UnitTester\Program.cs:line 43
   at UnitTester.Program.TestExceptions() in <snip>\Dev\UnitTester\Program.cs:line 25

You can see that in Exception 1, the stack trace goes back to the DivByZero() method, whereas in Exception 2 it does not.

Take note, though, that the line number shown in ThrowException1() and ThrowException2() is the line number of the throw statement, not the line number of the call to DivByZero(), which probably makes sense now that I think about it a bit...
