Cannot use WebDriverExceptionEventArgs.ThrownException in Selenium C#

Question

I am encountering a problem trying to use WebDriverExceptionEventArgs.ThrownException:

firingWebDriver.ExceptionThrown     += new EventHandler<WebElementEventArgs>(_ExceptionThrown);

static void _ExceptionThrown(object sender, WebElementEventArgs e)
    {
        //System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine(e.ThrownException.Message);
        //Console.WriteLine(e.ThrownException.Message);
    }

However VS2015 displays the following error:

Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.EventHandler<OpenQA.Selenium.Support.Events.WebElementArgs> to 'System.EventHandler<OpenaQA.Selenium.Support.Events.WebDriverExceptionEventArgs>

I am not sure where the mistake lies, any help?

Answer 1

As Kate Paulk commented, the solution was to change WebElementEventArgs to WebDriverExceptionEventArgs, like so:

firingWebDriver.ExceptionThrown     += new EventHandler<WebDriverExceptionEventArgs>(_ExceptionThrown);

static void _ExceptionThrown(object sender, WebDriverExceptionEventArgs e)
{
    //System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine(e.ThrownException.Message);
    //Console.WriteLine(e.ThrownException.Message);
}
