catch another process unhandled exception

I wish to know if i can catch the unhandled exceptions thrown by another process which I started using the Process.Start(...)

I know i can catch the standered error using this link , but what I want is to catch the error that are usually caught by the Just In Time debugger of the.net environment, the window with the following words: "An unhandled exception has occurred in your application . If you Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue . If you click Quit, the appl开发者_开发技巧ication will be shut down immediately ...." Which is then followed by the exception message and a "Continue" and "Quit" button.

You can try something like that to avoid the debugger question to appear, you won't get the exception but only the exit code:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        try
        {
            ProcessStartInfo info = 
                 new ProcessStartInfo("ErroneusApp.exe");
            info.ErrorDialog = false;
            info.RedirectStandardError = true;
            info.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
            info.CreateNoWindow = true;
            info.UseShellExecute = false;

            System.Diagnostics.Process p = 
                System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(info);
            p.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
            p.Exited += p_Exited;
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
        }
        Console.ReadLine();
    }


    static void p_Exited(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Process p = sender as Process;
        if (p != null)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Exited with code:{0} ", p.ExitCode);
        }
        else
            Console.WriteLine("exited");
    }

}

In this question they provided another workaround for that, but changing some registry values.

If you are calling to a .Net executable assembly you can load it and (at your own risk :D ) call to the Main method of the Program class into a try_catch statement:

Assembly assembly = Assembly.LoadFrom("ErroneusApp.exe");
Type[] types= assembly.GetTypes();
foreach (Type t in types)
{
 MethodInfo method = t.GetMethod("Main",
     BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
 if (method != null)
 {
    try
    {
        method.Invoke(null, null);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
    }
    break;
 }
}

But be aware of the security risks you are introducing doing that.

No. If the controlled app utilizes standardError and return codes you may be notified of the occurance of an error or exception but you cannot trap it in any way.

Instead of doing the whole sneaking around the assembly to try to find the Main method like in jmservera's answer, you can simply execute the assembly in a new domain. See this msdn article

In resolving to the previous target invocation issue, finally i end up with the below method.

Some of your application would have dependencies in the current directory, which leads to exception whenever it is executed in the another directory since the dependencies doesnt match.

Assembly assembly = Assembly.LoadFrom(file);
                    Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(Path.GetDirectoryName(file));
                    Type[] types = assembly.GetTypes();
                    foreach (Type t in types)
                    {
                        MethodInfo method = t.GetMethod("Main", BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
                        if (method != null)
                        {
                            try
                            {
                              method.Invoke(null, null);
                            }

Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(Path.GetDirectoryName(file)); //by refering to the current directory target invocation exception would be resolved.
