Hello all,
I am tasked with creating a base exception handler that will handle a
bunch of clean-up that needs to happen based on the type of exception
thrown. So, for example, I will have (at least in my initial thoughts)
a base class like:
public abstract class BaseExceptionHandler
{
public void HandleException(Exception ex)
{
Do something based on exception type;
}
}
Then each inherited exception type will declare like:
public abstract class NewExceptionHandler : BaseExceptionHandler
{
Any new or overridden logic
}
Then the implementation needs to look like:
NewExceptionHandler exHandler = new NewExceptionHandler();
try
{
Whatever
}
catch (MissingDependencyException ex)
{
exHandler.HandleException(ex);
}
catch (DividebyzeroException ex)
{
exHandler.HandleException(ex);
}
…
How, given that all of these inherit from Sytem.Exception do I find
out the actual type of the exception thrown? I know I am missing
something obvious…
Thanks in advance!
