How can I catch a exception form ObjectDataSource.Updata()

Question

The exception is throwed by database caused a conflicting by FOREIGN KEY.

Answer 1

look at the eventargs on the ObjectDataSource. There should be an e.Exception & e.Results that you can query for the success/error of your update.

protected void MyOds_Updated(object sender, ObjectDataSourceStatusEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Exception != null)
    {
        // handle exception here.
    }
}

Answer 2

Hi,

To tell the ObjectDataSource to not rethrow your exception, you have to set the ExceptionHandled flag to True.

protected void MyOds_Updated(object sender, ObjectDataSourceStatusEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Exception != null)
    {

        //this tells the ObjectDatasource : It's ok, i'm taking care of this
        //and don't rethrow it.
        e.ExceptionHandled = true

        // handle exception here (log/display to user etc ...)
    }
}

I hope this will help you.
