How to catch exceptions in Render methods?

How or is it possible to catch exceptions thrown from Render methods?

I have a series modules for my ASP.NET application, which implements the Render method. All the exception handling is working fine when outside the Render methods. If I set Trace="true" I can see that the Page_Load method is a done chapter before all rendering is done, why I am not sure if it is possible.

Thanks, Jacob.

I guess this works...

Code:

        protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
        {
            try
            {
                base.Render(writer);
            }
            catch(Exception e)
            {
                Response.Write(e.Message);
            }
        }

... but is it best practice?

Thanks, Jacob.
