As far as I have read an unhandled exception terminates the appdomains and the process. But, I am facing a seemingly contradictory/ambiguous behavior as described below -
I have made a simple asp.net web application with 2 simple pages: Webform1.aspx and Webform2.aspx with the code shown below
Webform1.aspx
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { }
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { Thread.Sleep(20000); }
Webform2.aspx
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
throw new Exception("Something Happened.");
}I start by running Webform1.aspx and click Button1 which makes the current thread go to sleep. Then from another browser window I run Webform2.aspx. The exception caused by Webform2 should cause the appdomain for the application to terminate and affect the processing for Webform1.aspx but seemingly that doesnt happen as Webform1.aspx continues to be processed normally.
