catch all unhandled exceptions in ASP.NET Web Api

by

This is now possible with WebAPI 2.1 (see the What’s New):

Create one or more implementations of IExceptionLogger. For example:

public class TraceExceptionLogger : ExceptionLogger
{
    public override void Log(ExceptionLoggerContext context)
    {
        Trace.TraceError(context.ExceptionContext.Exception.ToString());
    }
}

Then register with your application’s HttpConfiguration, inside a config callback like so:

config.Services.Add(typeof(IExceptionLogger), new TraceExceptionLogger());

or directly:

GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Services.Add(typeof(IExceptionLogger), new TraceExceptionLogger());
