Exception Handling in Managed Extensions for C++
Visual Studio .NET 2003
You can use both structured exception handling (SEH) and C++ exception handling in Managed Extensions for C++. Managed Extensions extend native exception handling by supporting the handling of managed exceptions. A managed exception is any exception thrown by a managed type. The System::Exception class provides many useful methods for processing managed exceptions and is recommended as a base class for user-defined exception classes.
Note Catching exception types derived from an interface is not supported by Managed Extensions.
