OracleException Class

This class is created whenever the OracleDataAdapter encounters a situation that it cannot handle.

If the severity of the error is too great, the server may close the OracleConnection. However, the user can reopen the connection and continue.

The following example generates an OracleException due to a missing database, and then displays the exception.

Public Sub ShowOracleException() 

   Dim myConnection As OracleConnection = _
      New OracleConnection("Data Source=Oracle8i;Integrated Security=yes")

   Try 

      myConnection.Open()

   Catch e As OracleException

     Dim errorMessage As String = "Code: " & e.Code & vbCrLf & _
                                  "Message: " & e.Message

     Dim log As System.Diagnostics.EventLog = New System.Diagnostics.EventLog()
     log.Source = "My Application"
     log.WriteEntry(errorMessage)
     Console.WriteLine("An exception occurred. Please contact your system administrator.")

   End Try 
End Sub
