Parca

This library provides a handful of die helper methods for .NET.

How it works

using System;
using static Parca;

// Just throws an exception.
Die("Foo Error.");

// Throws an exception if the given condition is TRUE.
DieIf(1 == 1, "Foo Error.");

// Throws an exception if the given condition is FALSE.
DieUnless(1 == 2, "Foo Error.");

// Throws a typeof T exception.
DieWith<NullReferenceException>("Foo can't be null.");

// Throws a type of T exception if the given condition is TRUE.
DieWith<NullReferenceException>(If(1==1), "Foo can't be null.");

// Throws a type of T exception if the given condition is FALSE.
DieWith<NullReferenceException>(Unless(1==2), "Foo can't be null.");

// For more use cases, take a look at the test project.

About the name

Parca (Atropos in greek) was the oldest of the Three Fates, and was known as the "inflexible" or "inevitable." It was Atropos who chose the mechanism of death and ended the life of mortals by cutting their thread with her "abhorred shears."
