Description

Removes non-CLS exceptions handlers (general catch handler blocks) in PtsHost that are never executed (basically a dead-code). This originates from pre-NetFXv2 / C# 2.0 behaviour before non-CLS exceptions were being wrapped by default as RuntimeWrappedException which derives from Exception and hence you needed a general catch handler.

Nowadays Roslyn emits [assembly: RuntimeCompatibility(WrapNonExceptionThrows = true)] by default so all non-CLS exceptions are already handled via catch (Exception e) blocks and never fallthrough to the general catch { } handler.

Customer Impact

Smaller assembly size, codegen size and cleaner codebase for developers.

Regression

No.

Testing

Local build.

Risk

Low, those would be generally caught by CS1058 but the warning was suppressed. Reviewers just need to make sure the removed blocks are preceeded by catch (Exception e) to achieve the same effect.
