TryGetList

Anatoly Mironov

How do we get a list? Perhaps like that:

var list = web.Lists\[listname"\];
```But we must be aware of exceptions that can appear and we must handle them. A better way to get a list is to use [TryGetList](http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/18035/custom-webpart-being-rendered-twice-on-layout-page):

var list = web.Lists.TryGetList(listname);
