Null if cleared as well

Also returns null if prior code handling an error has called HttpContext.ClearError. $0$0 $0 $0For example, in ASP.NET MVC, if you have a Controller.OnException override as well as an HttpApplication.Application_Error handler in Global.asax, OnException may call HttpContext.ClearError and, while Application_Error is still executed, HttpContext.Error and Server.GetLastError will now return null within that context (at least assuming a new exception hasn't been thrown after clearing the one that started the mess).$0
