HttpContext.Error vs HttpContext.Server.GetLastError()

Question

Are there any practical differences between these two ways of getting an exception for the current asp.net request?

MSDN says HttpContent.Error returns the FIRST error while GetLastError() is evidently the last error, but I can't seem to tell any difference in use.

Which one is the cannon method for error logging?

Answer 1

They're the same:

HttpContext.Error returns the first error.

HttpContext.Server returns an instance of the HttpServerUtility class, which provides convenience wrappers for HttpContext, including

HttpContext.Server.GetLastError(), which returns HttpContext.Error (verified using Reflector).
