you can not catch exception from other threads? Right?

and I have tried even ProcessExit

After the handler for UnhandledException is executed, process is always terminated?

but in the situation of executing asynchronous method call, we can catch the exception (even if unhandled in the thread pool worker thread) in EndInvoke in main thread.

George_George wrote:

when there is unhandled exception in another thread, we can still catch it and not make process terminated.

George_George wrote:

So, asynchronous function call is the only case when we can catch exception from another thread?

Exception raisedException = null; // This is accessible in the whole class
void BeginRead()
{
   try{
      //Do some asynchronous process
   }
   cath(Exception ex){
      raisedException = ex;
   }
}
void EndRead()
{
    // Do something to stop asynchronous processing. You will call WaitHandle.WaitOne() here.
    if(raisedException != null) throw raisedException; //We are throwing the exception occured

    // No exceptions. So return the result
}

Note we handled the exception in the same thread where asynchronous method is executing, not in the main thread.

My point is we should handle it in main thread. Here is my code to prove. Any comments?

If you wanted to go that far you can catch errors in your thread method also...

on error resume next type functionally? If so might be better to use VB.NET as C# doesn't allow for that coding horror

I do not quite understand, especially what do you mean "on error resume next type functionally".
