Namespace: System.Security
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
The HostProtectionException type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | HostProtectionException() | Initializes a new instance of the HostProtectionException class with default values. |
| HostProtectionException(String) | Initializes a new instance of the HostProtectionException class with a specified error message. |
 | HostProtectionException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext) | Initializes a new instance of the HostProtectionException class using the provided serialization information and streaming context. |
| HostProtectionException(String, Exception) | Initializes a new instance of the HostProtectionException class with a specified error message and a reference to the inner exception that is the cause of this exception. |
| HostProtectionException(String, HostProtectionResource, HostProtectionResource) | Initializes a new instance of the HostProtectionException class with a specified error message, the protected host resources, and the host resources that caused the exception to be thrown. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Data | Gets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| DemandedResources | Gets or sets the demanded host protection resources that caused the exception to be thrown. |
| HelpLink | Gets or sets a link to the help file associated with this exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| HResult | Gets or sets HRESULT, a coded numerical value that is assigned to a specific exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| InnerException | Gets the Exception instance that caused the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| Message | Gets a message that describes the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| ProtectedResources | Gets or sets the host protection resources that are inaccessible to partially trusted code. |
| Source | Gets or sets the name of the application or the object that causes the error. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| StackTrace | Gets a string representation of the immediate frames on the call stack. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| TargetSite | Gets the method that throws the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetBaseException | When overridden in a derived class, returns the Exception that is the root cause of one or more subsequent exceptions. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetObjectData | Sets the specified SerializationInfo object with information about the host protection exception. (Overrides Exception.GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext).) |
| GetType | Gets the runtime type of the current instance. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| ToString | Returns a string representation of the current host protection exception. (Overrides Exception.ToString().) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | SerializeObjectState | Occurs when an exception is serialized to create an exception state object that contains serialized data about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
A HostProtectionAttribute attribute is used to determine if a type or member can be loaded, based on the host’s protection preferences established when the common language runtime is started. If a type or member with an active HostProtectionAttribute is called, a link demand occurs for that protection attribute. If the caller does not meet the demand for host protection, a HostProtectionException is thrown.
 Note |
|---|
A HostProtectionAttribute is not a permission, even though it is the target of a link demand. Because a HostProtectionException is thrown for a link demand, it cannot be handled, and therefore it cannot be trapped and processed in code. |
