What is the best practice in C# to propagate an exception thrown in a finally block without loosing an exception from a catch block?
- by Sergey Smolnikov
When an exception is possible to be thrown in a finally block how to propagate both exceptions - from catch and from finally?
As a possible solution - using an AggregateException:
internal class MyClass
{
public void Do()
{
Exception exception = null;
try
{
//example of an error occured in main logic
throw new InvalidOperationException();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
exception = e;
throw;
}
finally
{
try
{
//example of an error occured in finally
throw new AccessViolationException();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
if (exception != null)
throw new AggregateException(exception, e);
throw;
}
}
}
}
