Default Constructor on exceptions not recognised

[Justin Julicher]

When you have an exception:

‌

public class MyException extends Exception {
      public Integer statusCode {get; set;}
      public String message {get; set;}
      public MyException(Integer statusCode, String message){
          this.statusCode = statusCode;
          this.message = message;
      }
}

‌

you can call this exception with just:

throw new MyException('My Message');

However, in IC it’s saying this is invalid although this compiles and saves.

I could swear that I implemented some special handling for this given how Apex Exception constructors behave. I'll take a look...

This is obviously quite old, but I'm unable to reproduce this behavior with the following:

public with sharing class Issue1328Exception extends Exception
{
    private Integer statusCode { get; set; }
    private String message { get; set; }

    public Issue1328Exception(Integer statusCode, String message)
    {
        this.statusCode = statusCode;
        this.message = message;
    }

    public static void testIt()
    {
        throw new Issue1328Exception('My Message');
    }
}

If you still see this behavior, please reopen with any details on how you're reproducing it.
