public:
virtual void Fail(

	String^ detailMessage
) override

Parameters

message
Type: System::String^

The message to emit or display.

detailMessage
Type: System::String^

The detailed message to emit or display.

By default, this method sends the message parameter, the detailMessage parameter, and a stack trace to a message box (when the application runs in user-interface mode) and to the DefaultTraceListener instance.

The following code example calls a function that calls the Fail(String^, String^) method to log a detailed error message if the function throws an exception. The method writes the message to the console if a user interface is not available.
