<p>Does <a href="http://elmah.github.io/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">ELMAH</a> logged exceptions even when they do not bubble up to the application?  I'd like to pop up a message when an exception occurs and still log the exception.  Currently I've been putting everything in try catch blocks and spitting out messages, but this gets tedious.</p>

ELMAH has been updated to support a new feature called
Signaling
.
This allows you to handle exceptions how you want, while still logging them to ELMAH.
```
```
try
{
    int i = 5;
    int j = 0;
    i = i / j; //Throws exception
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    MyPersonalHandlingCode(ex);
    ErrorSignal.FromCurrentContext().Raise(ex); //ELMAH Signaling
}
```
```
Re-throwing exceptions can be a bad practice as it makes it difficult to trace the flow of an application.  Using Signaling is a much better approach if you intended to handle the error in some fashion and simply want to document it.
