Introduction

How to handle the global level exceptions in MVC.

Background

Handle the exception in MVC5

Using the code

Follw the below procedure and code.
-> Need to create the one class file common "GlobalExceptionFilter.cs".
-> Register the GlobalExceptionFilter class in Startup.cs file.
Once will get the exception it will hit the OnException mentod globally in that will get all the information about the exception like

• ClassName
• ErrorMessage
• Failurepoint
• Function
• Module
• StackTrace

After that watever we want will do that like need to call WCF service or any method to call to save exception info.
Blocks of code should be set as style "Formatted" like this:
