Text file and\or you can auto email it, which is what we do. -----Original Message----- From: Discussion of development on the .NET platform using any managed language [mailtoOTNET-CL RDISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM]On Behalf Of Steve W Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 12:30 PM To: DOTNET-CLRDISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM Subject: [DOTNET-CLR] Where do you write your error when all else fails ? I have an error handling mechanism in a windows service that does this : 1. Try and write error to db - catch any exception raised 2. If exception raised try and write to application log If 2 raises an exception where should I try and write the error information next ? I was thinking of a text file in the user's temporary directory - does anyone have any better suggestions ?

I take a minidump (well I generally do this anyways) ... It gives you alot more information than just the exception that occurred. Afterwords I commit suicide in the app. Cheers, Greg On 8/29/06, Greg Robinson <gregcds-am.net> wrote: > Text file and\or you can auto email it, which is what we do. > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Discussion of development on the .NET platform using any managed > language [mailtoOTNET-CL RDISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM]On Behalf Of Steve W > Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 12:30 PM > To: DOTNET-CLRDISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM > Subject: [DOTNET-CLR] Where do you write your error when all else fails > ? > > > I have an error handling mechanism in a windows service that does this : > > 1.
