endThe ApplicationException type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
.gif)
.gif) | ApplicationException | Initializes a new instance of the ApplicationException class. |
|
| ApplicationException(String) | Initializes a new instance of the ApplicationException class with a specified error message. |
.gif) | ApplicationException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext) | Initializes a new instance of the ApplicationException class with serialized data. |
|
| ApplicationException(String, Exception) | Initializes a new instance of the ApplicationException class with a specified error message and a reference to the inner exception that is the cause of this exception. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
.gif) | 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 | |
|---|---|---|
.gif) | SerializeObjectState | Occurs when an exception is serialized to create an exception state object that contains serialized data about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
User applications, not the common language runtime, throw custom exceptions derived from the ApplicationException class. The ApplicationException class differentiates between exceptions defined by applications versus exceptions defined by the system.
If you are designing an application that needs to create its own exceptions, you are advised to derive custom exceptions from the Exception class. It was originally thought that custom exceptions should derive from the ApplicationException class; however in practice this has not been found to add significant value. For more information, see Best Practices for Handling Exceptions.
ApplicationException uses the HRESULT COR_E_APPLICATION, which has the value 0x80131600.
For a list of initial property values for an instance of ApplicationException, see the ApplicationException constructors.
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)
The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
