catch consecutive error in .net c # using try catch

Question

I have a block of code that is executed N times within a foreach loop, and I need to detect if an error occurs more than 5 times in a row. I set a counter but I don't know how to detect if the increase was continuous or intermittently. And I need to stop the process only when those errors are continuous.

The code.

        int consecutiveError = 0;
        try
        {
            foreach (var item in collection)
            {
                //......
                //fail
            }
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            if (consecutiveError == 5)
                stopProccess();
        }

Try the following code:

  int errorCount = 0;
  foreach ( var item in collection )
  {
    try
    {
      //Code ......
      //fail

      //At end of code
      errorCount = 0;
    }
    catch ( Exception ex )
    {
      errorCount++;
      if ( errorCount > 5 )
      {
        stopProccess();
        throw;
      }
    }
  }
