Hi,
I get an exception in Authorization module which I am handling in Application_Error handler (also i am calling Server.ClearError()) since i want to sent custom error page with some error info to user.
I am surprised to see that final response sent to user have error response + response which was actually requested (which means that MVCHandler is processed)
I am posting below code snippet to simulate similar scenario for quick reference.
public MvcApplication()
{
AuthorizeRequest += (sender, arg) =>
{
throw new Exception("Boooommmm");
};
Error += (sender, arg) =>
{
HandleException();
};
}
private void HandleException()
{
var ex = Server.GetLastError();
Context.Response.Write(String.Format("Some Error Correlation ID to User"));
Server.ClearError();
}
And lets say : my HomeController action return simple text like :
public class HomeController : Controller
{
// GET: Home
public ActionResult Index()
{
return Content("Some text from controller");
}
}
If I will run above application and hit /Home/Index, response I will get like :
"Some Error Correlation ID to User Some text from controller"
This made me to ask question : Does HttpRuntime continue firing ApplicationEvents in sequence event after exception occurred in one of the event handler ?
I would like to understand how exception flows in such case (at least glimpse of this would be helpful)
Note : I already posted this question under ASP.NET MVC forum, but then realized this to be more appropriate forum for this question. There was no way to migrate thread from one forum to another - so I have to duplicate this question (please
suggest if some best practices to be obeyed under this situation)
Thanks in advance!!
Rahul
