Smaller Try-Blocks Are Better

It often happens, especiallyin Java, that a few places in the methodare potential exception originators. Usually, we make a large method-sizetry block with a single catch at the bottom. We catch allthe exceptions, usually even usinggrouping.This helps us minimize the noise, which is the exception catching.However, such large try blocks jeopardize maintainability: we are unableto provide proper error contextinside catch blocks.
