Class ExceptionHandlerSplitting::ExceptionHandlerSplit

A split for elements belonging to a catch clause, which determines the type of exception to handle. For example, in

try
{
    if (M() > 0)
        throw new ArgumentException();
    else if (M() < 0)
        throw new ArithmeticException("negative");
    else
        return;
}
catch (ArgumentException e)
{
    Log.Write("M() positive");
}
catch (ArithmeticException e) when (e.Message != null)
{
    Log.Write($"M() {e.Message}");
}

all control flow nodes in

catch (ArgumentException e)

and

catch (ArithmeticException e) when (e.Message != null)

have two splits: one representing the try block throwing an ArgumentException, and one representing the try block throwing an ArithmeticException.
