Xeption 2.8.0

Xeption

A Better Exception for .NET

This simple library is engineered to expose a new API for the standard .NET Exception model, allowing you to insert a list of values against a key in the Data property of that very exception.

The Purpose

This library allows .NET engineers to easily collect errors for any given flow or attribute before throwing an exception.

This new API simplifies the process of appending and allows access to the Data aspect of any exception to collect errors at any time.

The key value implementation for the Data attribute should simplify the way engineers represent errors related to the same issue, attribute, or value, such as validation errors, without any additional workaround code.

Standard-Promise

A Standard complaint system's most important fulfillment aspect is contributing to people, its evolution, and its principles. An organization that systematically honors an environment of learning, training, and sharing knowledge is an organization that learns from the past, makes calculated risks for the future, and brings everyone within it up to speed on the current state of things as honestly, rapidly, and efficiently as possible.

We believe that everyone has the right to privacy and will never do anything that could violate that right. We are committed to writing ethical and responsible software and will always strive to use our skills, coding, and systems for the good. These beliefs will help ensure that our software(s) are safe and secure and that it will never be used to harm or collect personal data for malicious purposes.

As a promise to you, the Standard Community upholds these values.

How to Use

To use Xeption, all you need to do is inherit the Xeption model to your local Exception models as follows:

Setup

public class MyLocalException: Xeption
{
	// ...
}

Adding Values

To add values to your Xeption inheriting class, you must call .UpsertDataList(key, value) API to add more values to the dictionary as follows:

var myLocalException = new MyLocalException();
myLocalException.UpsertDataList(key: "MyKey", value: "MyValue");

Throwing If Contains Errors

Xeption also allows the ability to throw the local exception if the data dictionary contains values. You can call that API from your local instance as follows:

myLocalException.ThrowIfContainsErrors();

Native APIs

Xeption will maintain the native APIs for the Exception native class.

var xeption = new Xeption();

var xeptionWithMessage = new Xeption(message: "Some Message");

var xeptionWithInnerException = new Xeption(
	message: "Some Message",
	innerException: someInnerException);
