Why can't I log an error?

I have an ASP.NET 2010 app. Basically, anywhere I have reason to suspect an error I employ the following technique in order to attempt to log it.

Try

'Code causing error here

Catch ex As Exception When LogException(ex)
Catch ex As Exception 'Here is where I would put a more specific error

End Try

The LogException function ALWAYS returns false. Therefore, every exception should be caught and logged and then control falls back to the next exception in the block. What really happens is the LogException function is called, but before it can do anything, control goes ri开发者_如何学Cght back to the next exception in the block above. Why?

Edit...Here is the function that is getting called but returning fter the 1st line...

Public Function LogException(ByVal ex As Exception) As Boolean
        Dim oExceptionMgt As New ExceptionMgt 'This line runs
        oExceptionMgt.LogException(ex) 'This line should go to db to log error. 
Return False
    End Function

While I am not a VB programmer if I see a condition such as:

do something when somecondition

That logically says only do something when somecondition is true. Therefore in your example the code is executing correctly because your LogException(Exception ex) method is always false. Which in turn means don't do the something in this instance and continue executing.
