rdoc Question: How to document which exceptions a function raises

[Brian Schröder]

Hello Group,

is there already a possibility in rdoc to document which exceptions a
function raises? Somethink like the :yield: keyword.

I did not find anything in the rdoc documentation.

regards,

Best to write it out if you must document it. Having something more or
less automatically generated leads to the concept of "checked"
exceptions, which C++ and Java users are now realising were a huge
mistake.
