Methods

  Name Description
Public method Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method SetObserved Marks the Exception as "observed," thus preventing it from triggering exception escalation policy which, by default, terminates the process.
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

The Exception property is used to examine the exception without marking it as observed, whereas the SetObserved method is used to mark the exception as observed. Marking the exception as observed prevents it from triggering exception escalation policy which, by default, terminates the process.
