I am making some changes to the exceptions in a large project and what I
would like to do is have every method with the change just declare that
they now throw the new exception. There are lots of these (lots and lots)
and it would be incredibly tedious to do by hand. Is it possible to
select them all in the "Problems" view and tell them all to use the "Quick
Fix" to declare their method to throw this exception? If not is there
some other way to do this?

Thanks for any help,
Stuart

I don't think so, exactly. Something that might help you is the
refactoring "Change method signature", which allows you to modify a
method signature and will automatically update all dependent code
(overridden methods in subclasses, calling code, etc.). It won't help
update non-dependent code in bulk, but it might alleviate some of the work.

HTH,
Eric
