[<ExtensionAttribute>]
static member Catch : 
        task : Task<'TResult> * 
        handler : Func<Task<'TResult>, 'TException, 'TResult> -> Task<'TResult>  when 'TException : Exception

Parameters

task

Type: System.Threading.TasksTaskTResult
The antecedent task.

handler

Type: SystemFuncTaskTResult, TException, TResult
The exception handler continuation function to execute when task completes with an exception of type TException.

Type Parameters

TException

The type of exception which is handled by handler.

TResult

The result type of the antecedent task.

Return Value

Usage Note

try
{
    return await task.ConfigureAwait(false);
}
catch (TException ex)
{
    return handler(task, ex);
}

This method is capable of handling Canceled antecedent tasks when TException is assignable from TaskCanceledException.

This method ensures that exception information provided by a faulted or canceled task is not wrapped in an additional AggregateException.

Notes to Callers
Since the continuation is executed synchronously, this method should only be used for lightweight exception handler methods. For non-trivial exception handlers, use a Task for the exception handling operation and call CatchTException, TResult(TaskTResult, FuncTaskTResult, TException, TaskTResult) instead.
