RV_EXCEPTION_NOT_THROWN
RV: Exception created and dropped rather than thrown (RV_EXCEPTION_NOT_THROWN)
This code creates an exception (or error) object, but doesn't do anything with it. For example,
something like
if (x < 0)
new IllegalArgumentException("x must be nonnegative");
It was probably the intent of the programmer to throw the created exception:
if (x < 0)
throw new IllegalArgumentException("x must be nonnegative");
