Body
I have a windows service written in the .NET 4.0 framework that uses NHibernate enlisting in a distributed transaction talking to an Oracle database. Within our test environment the service encountered an error with the database which seems to have caused a problem with NHibernate closing the ADO.NET connection. The entire call against NHibernate, from opening the session to disposing of it, is wrapped within a try/catch block that catches System.Exception but the error is not caught within that block. I've included the stack trace from the windows event log below for reference. I believe that the exception is being thrown in another thread (which the stack trace seems to refer to) which then propogates up and causes the windows service to crash. My questions are: 1. If it is another thread, where does it come from (what starts it)? 2. Is there anything I can add to my code to make sure this exception does not escape and bring down the windows service? <hr> Application: X Framework Version: v4.0.30319 Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
