How to return HTTP 500 from ASP.NET Core RC2 Web Api?

Question

Back in RC1, I would do this:

[HttpPost]
public IActionResult Post([FromBody]string something)
{    
    try{
        // ...
    }
    catch(Exception e)
            


        

Answer 1

If you need a body in your response, you can call

return StatusCode(StatusCodes.Status500InternalServerError, responseObject);

This will return a 500 with the response object...
