This file provides guidance for LLMs to review Amaze File Manager's pull requests.

Specific instructions

In this section are the specific instructions for special cases.

try-catch structure

When writing a try-catch, in most cases, the catch should contain a specific Exception subclass, meant to be caught at that point. The Exception caught should be thrown by one of the functions called in the try clause. In some cases, the catch has to be generic, for example when the catch has to prevent Exceptions from crashing a thread.

When catching an OutOfMemoryError the catch clause should make careful use of memory, and should not instantiate new objects. For more information see https://stackoverflow.com/q/24510188.
