I test the exceptions interception, so, I don't need that Visual Studio breaks on thinkgs like thrown new NullReferenceException("myVar")
.
I have the following under Debug=>Exceptions
however, VS breaks on the exceptions. What should I do?
PS.
for the application unhandled exception, I "catch" them using the Application.UnhandledException
as in the the following:
''' <summary>Occurs when the application encounters an unhandled exception.</summary> '
Private Sub Application_UnhandledException(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Microsoft.VisualBasic.ApplicationServices.UnhandledExceptionEventArgs) Handles Me.UnhandledException
Dim message As String = String.Format("An application UnhandledException were thrown.{1}The application will now terminate.{1}'{0}'{1}{1}StackTrace:{1}{2}", e.Exception.Message, Environment.NewLine, e.Exception.StackTrace)
MessageBox.Show(message)
End Sub
Tell the debugger to break when an exception is thrownIn the Exception Settings window (Debug > Windows > Exception Settings), expand the node for a category of exceptions, such as Common Language Runtime Exceptions. Then select the check box for a specific exception within that category, such as System.
An exception is a response to an exceptional circumstance that arises while a program is running, such as an attempt to divide by zero. Exceptions provide a way to transfer control from one part of a program to another. VB.Net exception handling is built upon four keywords - Try, Catch, Finally and Throw.
You can also click on the line you want to skip to and hit Ctrl+F10 (Run to Cursor). It will jump directly to that line.
I had same problem when I started using VS2010. I have unit tests, which expect exceptions, and I throw exceptions from my functions. These exceptions are supposed to be handled by the user of my library. In Debug->Exceptions dialog, I unchecked check box under User-Unhandled column for Common Language Runtime Exceptions, and VS stopped breaking on these exceptions. By the way, I don't see second column in the dialog you attached here.
