Hi there,

Is there a global subscriber that lets me handle specific exceptions? I have a case where I need to intercept an exception being thrown in the application and then clear some cookies that are related to that exception. What's the best subscriber for that? Is there a one specifically for this or should I handle something broader like OnOutput?

Thanks!

Imar

Hi Imar,

I don't believe that we have one of those - and I would really like to hear the usecase for it. :)

When the application enters an exception state (application unstable/broken somehow) you want to use our NotificationFramework and our CookieManager to do more work? But ... what if they become unstable/break? => Headache. :(

The use case is the "Cart can only contain cart items" exception that was recently added. We have some legit users with broken carts. When this exception occurs, I like to delete their cart cookies using HttpContext directly so they can continue shopping with a new cart. I can't tell all of them to clear their cookies... ;-)
