Have a few questions about the Component Exception in the Engine

[ckslayer22]

As the title implies I am having a few issues and a few questions regarding the component Exception Handler in the Engin.

1) For some reason I always return a null value when it hits the If statement or the Compiler gives me a warning saying that the exception is unhandled

2) As for my Question would it not be better to state in the if that name can not be null and also can not be a zero length string and just use a few If Else Statements to handle all outcomes?

could you post any of your "getcomponent" code you are using?

2) As for my Question would it not be better to state in the if that name can not be null and also can not be a zero length string and just use a few If Else Statements to handle all outcomes?

an empty string is "allowed" for the dictonary, and who am I to forbid the usage of that? 
if you put a breakpoint on the evaluation line, what is filled in the "name" variabel?

              Yeah could you post any of your "get component" code you are using? .,I really want to know.,
