Break on Exceptions Thrown only from Specific Modules in Visual Studio 2017
Apr 1, 2016Aaron Hallberg

Summary
Introduces a new feature in Visual Studio 2017 that allows developers to break on thrown exceptions with finer-grained control beyond just exception type. Developers can now add a Module Name condition to an exception, specifying whether to break only on exceptions thrown from specific modules (Module Name Equals) or to ignore breaking on exceptions thrown from specific modules (Module Name Not Equals). This helps reduce unnecessary breaks caused by exceptions in third-party libraries or irrelevant code.
