Multiple or Single Try Catch [duplicate]

I always try to reduce levels of nesting for readability and maintainability. If you have n try/catch blocks, each handling the same type of exception, why not refactor the code that can throw the exception into methods…it would look something like: try { firstBatchOfTricky(); secondBatchOfTricky(); …. nthBatchOfTricky(); } catch (ItWentBoomException e) { // recover from … Read more

How to catch net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

In short, what’s happening is that the thread receiving this exception is running some asynchronous code (via Invoke(), e.g.) … Read more

How do exceptions in Haskell work?

The answer is that this is the (somewhat surprising) semantics of imprecise exceptions When pure code can be shown to evaluate to a set of exceptional values (i.e. the value of error or undefined, and explicitly not the kind of exceptions generated in IO), then the language permits any value of that set to be … Read more

Intermittent asp.net mvc exception: “A public action method ABC could not be found on controller XYZ.”

We found the answer. We looked into our web logs. It showed that we were receiving some weird http actions (verbs/methods) like OPTIONS, PROPFIND and HEAD. This seems to the cause of some of theses exceptions. This explains why it was intermittent. We reproduced the issue with the curl.exe tool: curl.exe -X OPTIONS http://localhost/v2.3.1.0/(S(boztz1aquhzurevtjwllzr45))/Form/Fill/273 curl.exe … Read more
