Idea for doing almost same work in both catch & finally(C#3.0)
- by Newbie
I have a requirement.
I am processing some files and after the processing are done I am archiving those files into an archive folder with timestamp appended.
The file archiving and putting time stamp portion I am doing in the Finally block. Now a new requirement has come where I need to mail if something wrong goes in the original files and then I need to archive the same. Now this piece of code I need to handle in the catch block.
But if I write the code entirely in the catch block, then it will fire only if there is an exception; otherwise not.
So basically I am writing the same pice of code in both the catch and finally block.
What is the standard and recommended approach you people think will be better in this case?
I am using C#3.0
Thanks.
