[Groovy] Class UnnecessaryCatchBlockRule

java.lang.Object
  org.codenarc.rule.AbstractRule
      org.codenarc.rule.AbstractAstVisitorRule
          org.codenarc.rule.unnecessary.UnnecessaryCatchBlockRule

class UnnecessaryCatchBlockRule
extends AbstractAstVisitorRule

Violations are triggered when a catch block does nothing but throw the original exception. In this scenario there is usually no need for a catch block, just let the exception be thrown from the original code. This condition frequently occurs when catching an exception for debugging purposes but then forgetting to take the catch statement out.
