Question

I have a loop (see below). If I enter any of the catch blocks, I want to end the loop for the item I’m looping at the moment (I have an array of file paths).

Say the item is file = “C:\test.txt”

When looping this file (C:\test.txt), if something goes wrong, I want to halt the loop for this file BUT continue the foreach for the other files in the array finalFiles.

Is this possible?

foreach (string file in finalFiles)
{
                if (file.Contains(".tiff") == true)
                {
                    PolicyNumber = Path.GetFileName(file).Split('_')[0];
                    basePolicyNumber = PolicyNumber.Remove(PolicyNumber.Length - 2);
                    basePolicyNumber = basePolicyNumber + "00";

                    finalPolicyName = Path.GetFileName(file);

                    try
                    {
                        PolicyUUID = Transporter.GetPolicyUUID(AppVars.pxCentralRootURL, basePolicyNumber);
                    }
                    catch (Exception ex)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error getting UUID from policy online!", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
                        uploadToPxCentralWorker.ReportProgress(0);
                    }

                    ixLibrarySourceFileURL = AppVars.ixLibraryPolicyAttachmentsURL + finalPolicyName;

                    try
                    {
                        Transporter.UploadFileToixLibrary(AppVars.ixLibraryPolicyAttachmentsURL, file);
                    }
                    catch (Exception ex)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
                        uploadToPxCentralWorker.ReportProgress(0);
                        error = 1;
                    }
}

Try the continue keyword. It will continue the loop at the next iteration.
