Log the InnerException property and any other property that expose exceptions #178

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
In addition to logging the details of the Exception that is logged, get the 
details of the InnerException property, if it is non-null, as well as any 
Exceptions exposed by the InnerException properties on those Exceptions.

Also, if there are other properties that expose Exceptions (or IEnumerable<T> 
where the base of T is Exception), then log those properties as well.

This will allow for a richer Exception report.  For example, Elmah catches a 
ReflectionTypeLoadException in my application.  However, what's really of more 
interest to me is the LoaderExceptions property, which has other exceptions; 
the Message property of ReflectionTypeLoadException is "Unable to load one or 
more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more 
information."

This will be exceptionally important for .NET 4.0 as well, with the new 
AggregateException exception.

Similar to the Exception Data dictionary, I think this would be an excellent 
addition.

Had a similar thought - but turned out we had a custom exception that wasnt 
calling base with the passed in exception.
As long as we do that, we got the details of the inner exception as this is 
included in the toString of Exception

For extending though - be nice if elmah exposed out assinging a Func to methods 
for getMessage and getDetails in error.cs - so something like:
Elmah.Error.GetMessage = (e) => e.Message + getExtraExceptionInfo(e);

That way anyone could extend and augment what got logged

This would be a great addition. I might see if I can't get it into a custom 
build for myself, if I do I'll provide a patch.
