    Catch ex As System.Exception

Remarks

If it is true, then you can query interface or cast it to a CodeType object.

Note

The values of code model elements such as classes, structs, functions, attributes, delegates, and so forth can be non-deterministic after making certain kinds of edits, meaning that their values cannot be relied upon to always remain the same.
