Is it possible to execute the code in the try block again after an exception in caught in catch block?

Question

I want to execute the code in the try block again after an exception is caught. Is that possible somehow?

For Eg:

try
{
    //execute some code
}
catch(E

If you wrap your block in a method, you can recursively call it

void MyMethod(type arg1, type arg2, int retryNumber = 0)
{
    try
    {
        ...
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
        if (retryNumber < maxRetryNumber)
            MyMethod(arg1, arg2, retryNumber+1)
        else
            throw;
    }
}

or you could do it in a loop.

int retries = 0;

while(true)
{
    try
    {
        ...
        break; // exit the loop if code completes
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
        if (retries < maxRetries)
            retries++;
        else
            throw;
    }
}
