Exception.GetObjectData Method
When overridden in a derived class, sets the SerializationInfo with information about the exception.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
abstract GetObjectData : info:SerializationInfo * context:StreamingContext -> unit override GetObjectData : info:SerializationInfo * context:StreamingContext -> unit
Parameters
- info
- Type: System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo
The SerializationInfo that holds the serialized object data about the exception being thrown.
- context
- Type: System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext
The StreamingContext that contains contextual information about the source or destination.
Implements
ISerializable.GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)_Exception.GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | The info parameter is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic). |
GetObjectData sets a SerializationInfo with all the exception object data targeted for serialization. During deserialization, the exception is reconstituted from the SerializationInfo transmitted over the stream.
The following code example defines a derived serializable Exception class that implements GetObjectData, which makes minor changes to two properties and then calls the base class to perform the serialization. The example forces a divide-by-0 error and then creates an instance of the derived exception. The code serializes the instance to a file, deserializes the file into a new exception, which it throws, and then catches and displays the exception's data.
