Auto-generate a try catch block in visual studio 2010

Anyone know if there is a keystroke shortcut or option to autogenerate a try/catch block around a statement in Visual Studio 2010? I can see what exceptions are thrown if I look at the overlay documentati开发者_StackOverflow社区on when I hover over a statement. I'd like to right click -> generate try/catch, as it would save a lot of time in handling all possible cases.

Is this possible?

Using the mouse

1. Mark your code

2. Right-click

3. Select Surround with...

4. Double-click try

Using the keyboard #1

1. Mark your code using Shift, Ctrl + A, or whatever works for you

2. Press Menu key / Application key (alternatively Shift + F10)

3. Type S

4. Type T

5. Press Enter or Tab

Using the keyboard #2 (as perlox and Fredrik Norlin points out)

1. Mark your code using Shift, Ctrl + A, or whatever works for you

2. Press Ctrl + K, followed by CTRL + S

3. Type T

4. Press Enter or Tab

type try then hit Tab,Tab

2 x Tab activates a code snippet.

type tryf , Tab,Tab to activate the try..finally block instead

If you don't want to remove your fingers from the keyboard, you can hit Ctrl + K, Ctrl + S, then T, then Enter. That's basically what he said, but without using the mouse.

Have you tried using snippets?

I use CodeRush from DevExpress. I can use the key strokes "TC" to generate. It works with C# too.

    Try

                Catch ex As Exception
                    dmPrgm_Err(Err, ex)
                End Try

I then can use TSC for a Try SQL Catch with custom message boxes.

            Try

                Catch ex As SqlException
                    dmSQLErr(ex)
                Catch ex As Exception
                    dmPrgm_Err(Err, ex)
                End Try

There is now a visualstudio 2017 extension: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ZTransform.TryCatch

If you want to use it with VS2019: download, change extension to zip, unzip, follow these instructions https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/how-to-upgrade-extensions-to-support-visual-studio-2019/, zip, rename to .vsix and install.
