Treehouse Guest TeacherMy apologies. I'm just now taking a look at this. This wasn't a compiler error. C# has very few requirements regarding spaces. The problem was in our test code.
Also, Igor is missing the call to the base constructor, so his code will still fail the challenge, but with a better error now.

public TooBigException(string message)
: base(message)
{
}
}
}

7,556 PointsYour code works, my no. what is the difference ?
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
class TooBigException : System.Exception
{
public TooBigException (string message) : base (message)
{
}
}
}
Jeremy Hill
29,567 PointsDo you see that space between TooBigException and your parameters? Try deleting that space, I bet that will fix it.
