AppDomain.FirstChanceException and stack overflow exception

Question

I\'m using the FirstChanceException event to log details about any thrown exceptions.

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FirstChanceEx         


        

Answer 1

This is working for me:

private volatile bool _insideFirstChanceExceptionHandler;    

// ...

AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FirstChanceException += OnFirstChanceException;

// ...

private void OnFirstChanceException(object sender, FirstChanceExceptionEventArgs args)
{
    if (_insideFirstChanceExceptionHandler)
    {
        // Prevent recursion if an exception is thrown inside this method
        return;
    }

    _insideFirstChanceExceptionHandler = true;
    try
    {
        // Code which may throw an exception
    }
    catch
    {
        // You have to catch all exceptions inside this method
    }
    finally
    {
        _insideFirstChanceExceptionHandler = false;
    }
}
