Java/Eclipse: Why some throws are ignored by the IDE?

Namely any enum valueof() (not the class Enum) will not require try/catch for IllegalArgumentException.

I had to look here, and at the Enum class, to know about it.

As a bonus answer, I would like to know if there is some way to make the IDE require these try/catch blocks. Namely Eclipse IDE.

PS.: I am using Eclipse Luna 4.4.2, an upgrade suggestion is acceptable also.

Your *asking for bonus* made me laugh :) – Sнаđошƒаӽ Mar 17 '16 at 20:21
@Shadowfax good, you at least are more happier than me concerning this problem :) – Aquarius Power Mar 17 '16 at 20:23

@JeroenVannevel The first bit is an obvious duplicate, but the bonus (can I get my IDE to force me to put try/catch blocks for unchecked exceptions) might not be. – Paul Boddington Mar 17 '16 at 20:24
