Using Web Api 2.2 I have these interfaces to do global exception/logging:

IExceptionHandler
IExcceptionLogger

Both interfaces are not present in MVC6 ASP.NET 5

They were probably not ported.

I would like to know what is NOW at the moment a good way for global exception/logging handling?

Should I derive from ControllerActionInvoker and override its InvokeActionAsync method?

I need to differentiate between exception handling/logging when an exception occurs inside an action AND before an action like message handler(middleware)

You can use the `UserErrorHandler` middleware for this. [It is going to change name soon though](https://github.com/aspnet/Announcements/issues/63) – Joe Sep 20 '15 at 11:45
I searched on github mvc repo for: "userErrorHandler" "useErrorHandler" "UseExceptionHandler". Where is this class? – Elisabeth Sep 20 '15 at 13:12
and when I create a sample mvc6 project there is no app.UseErrorHandler() – Elisabeth Sep 20 '15 at 13:20
@Yuval Itzchakov Where is that duplicate so I can look for it? – Elisabeth Sep 20 '15 at 15:36

Thanks, the answer in the duplicate message should help, creating a middleware component class! – Elisabeth Sep 21 '15 at 19:15
