Question

Let’s say we have C# called by an unmanaged C++ application. The caller’s code is unavailable.

public void MethodCalledByUnmanagedCode()
{
try
{
   DoWork()
}
catch {}//assume we swallow exception, no logging or anything
}

In this case, is there any way possible for any exception to bubble up to unmanaged C++ in any circumstance?

Answer 1

Your code could raise a ThreadAbortException.

ThreadAbortException is a special exception that can be caught, but it will automatically be raised again at the end of the catch block.
