Remarks

Execution engine errors are fatal errors that should never occur. Such errors occur mainly when the execution engine has been corrupted or data is missing. The system can throw this exception at any time. When possible, the system throws an exception that provides more information than the ExecutionEngineException exception.

Applications should not throw ExecutionEngineException.

ExecutionEngineException uses the HRESULT COR_E_EXECUTIONENGINE, which has the value 0x80131506.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of ExecutionEngineException, see the ExecutionEngineException constructors.
