C# 6.0–Exception Filters

This blog post is part of C# 6.0 Features Series.

C# 6.0 contains lots of small features and one of them is Exception filters. It is already there with VB.NET earlier but now it is available in C# also. In exception filters now if exception is combined with Exception statement and If condition of if satisfy then it will execute that block.

Let’s take a simple example to understand it better. Following is a code for a simple console application. Before exception filters we were able to write a code like following.

using System;

namespace ExceptionFilters
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            try
            {
                throw new Exception("Jalpesh");
            }

            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                if(ex.Message =="Jalpesh")
                    Console.WriteLine("Exception with Message Jalpesh is executed");
                else
                    Console.WriteLine("Exception with Message DotNetJalps executed");
            }
        }
    }
}

In above example, I have thrown a exception in try block and in catch block I have written if-else block to check message and based on that it will print some method.

C# 6.0–Null conditional operator

This blog post is part of C# 6.0 Features Series.

As we know there are lots of small features added in C# 6.0 and Null conditional operator is one of them. You can check null with specific conditions with Null conditional operator and this will definitely increase productivity of developers and there will be less lines of code.

Let’s create example. Following are two classes I have created for this example. Address class will contains two properties like Street and City.

namespace NullConditionalOperator
{
    public class Address
    {
        public string Street { get; set; }
        public string City { get; set; }
    }
}

And Same way Person class contains four properties Id,FirstName,Lastname and Address which is of type Address class which we have created.
