Parameters

Type	Name	Description

RethrowPreservingStackTrace(Exception)

Rethrows an already-thrown exception, preserving the stack trace of the original throw.

This method does not return; its return type is an exception type so it can be used with throw semantics, e.g.: throw ex.RethrowPreservingStackTrace();, to let static code analysis tools that it throws instead of returning.

Declaration

public static InternalErrorException RethrowPreservingStackTrace(this Exception this)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Exception	this	The exception to rethrow.

Returns

Type	Description
InternalErrorException	This method should never return; if it does, it is an indication of an internal error, so it returns an instance of InternalErrorException.
