Parameters

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of the ReliabilityContractAttribute constructor to create a constrained execution region and a finally block that is guaranteed to execute.

// Demonstrate CERs using abrupt thread aborts. Demonstrate there
// is always a finally invocation for any CER that is entered.

        // passed in is the stack depth to create.
