It didn’t take long to track down why – I was calling <code>Response.Redirect</code> from within a <code>try/catch</code> block in my ASP.NET code-behind page, and the catch block was catching the <code>ThreadAbortException</code> and writing it out to the log. But why was the <code>ThreadAbortException</code> being generated?</p><p><a href="https://www.sagara.dev/2008/04/05/response-redirect-and-the-threadabortexception-and-why-its-a-good-thing/">Continue reading...</a></p>
