Namespace: System
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
The UriFormatException type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | UriFormatException() | Initializes a new instance of the UriFormatException class. |
![]() ![]() | UriFormatException(String) | Initializes a new instance of the UriFormatException class with the specified message. |
![]() | UriFormatException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext) | Initializes a new instance of the UriFormatException class from the specified SerializationInfo and StreamingContext instances. |
![]() | UriFormatException(String, Exception) | Initializes a new instance of the UriFormatException class with a specified error message and a reference to the inner exception that is the cause of this exception. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Data | Gets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() | 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.) |
![]() | 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 | When overridden in a derived class, sets the SerializationInfo with information about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() ![]() | GetType | Gets the runtime type of the current instance. (Inherited from Exception.) In XNA Framework 3.0, this member is inherited from Object.GetType(). |
![]() ![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() ![]() | ToString | Creates and returns a string representation of the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| 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.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | ISerializable.GetObjectData | Infrastructure. Populates a SerializationInfo instance with the data that is needed to serialize the UriFormatException. |
The UriFormatException is thrown by the Uri class constructor if the supplied URI could not be correctly parsed. The format for a valid URI is defined in RFC 2396.
The text of the Message property indicates the reason that the exception was thrown.
Note |
|---|
This exception is not included in the .NET for Windows Store apps or the Portable Class Library, but it is thrown by some members that are. To catch the exception in that case, write a catch statement for FormatException instead. |
Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core Role not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core Role supported with SP1 or later; Itanium not supported)
