Break on Runtime Custom Exceptions ColdFusion Connector

When using Break on custom_type exceptions in ColdFusion servers, the behavior may not be as expected. ColdFusion defines a Caught exception as an exception thrown inside a <cftry> body. This means that the <cfcatch> type does not have to be of custom_type for the breakpoint to be fired.

For example, the following would be deemed a caught exception and an exception breakpoint would fire, if enabled.

<cftry>
	<cfthrow type="custom_type" message="Error">
<cfcatch type="application">
	Application exception thrown! <br>
</cfcatch>
</cftry>

An Uncaught exception would be one thrown outside of a <cftry> body, as expected.

Note

Different ColdFusion servers will thow the exception multiple times. This will cause FusionDebug to halt the page more than once.
