Finding origin assembly of an exception

[kerplunkwhoops]

Hello

I have created a seperate class library for handling exceptions ie
logging, alerts etc.

This class library can be referenced by any number of other assemblies
which pass any exceptions to the handler library in
Application.ThreadException and
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.UnhandledException.

Is there any way to determine the assembly where the exception
originated, or will I need to explicitly pass the assembly information
to the handler?

Microsofts Application Blocks has an exception handler that uses
Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly() to get assembly information, but this
simply returns the handler class library, not the exception
originator.

Thanks

Check yourException.TargetSite.DeclaringType.Assembly
