Handling Errors

When you write a Forefront Identity Manager Synchronization Service (FIM Synchronization Service) extension, be aware that you must consider several exceptions that can be returned from the extension DLL. When these exceptions are thrown, a description string is specified in some cases. This string is visible only for object errors and not for run errors, except where it is logged.
