How to log exceptions in JavaScript

Question

As a C# developer I\'m used to the following style of exception handling:

try
{
    throw SomeException(\"hahahaha!\");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    Log(ex.T         


        

Answer 1

You can use almost in the same manner ie.

try
{
    throw new Error("hahahaha!");
}
catch (e)
{
    alert(e.message)
}

But if you want to get line number and filename where error is thrown i suppose there is no crossbrowser solution. Message and name are the only standart properties of Error object. In mozilla you have also lineNumber and fileName properties.
