If you just need access to these details for display or logging purposes then you can use the excepetion's StackTrace property like :

       Try
           Dim i As Integer
           Dim s As String = "Fred"
           i = s
       Catch ex As Exception
           MessageBox.Show(ex.StackTrace)
       End Try

 

If you require programatic access then if you could give a little more detail about how your code is organised / what you are trying to do then we can offer more help.

I apreciate ur relpy but what i want is the exact class name and the method name. stackTrace is givin umnecssary details.

 

for example u can use the application.name to find the application where the error occured

What do you need this information for? There may be a better way to achieve what you are trying to do. Edited July 15, 2004 by PlausiblyDamp
