HttpException Constructors

Definition

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class.

Overloads

HttpException()

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class and creates an empty HttpException object.

HttpException(String)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using a supplied error message.

HttpException(Int32, String)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an HTTP response status code and an error message.

HttpException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class with serialized data.

HttpException(String, Exception)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an error message and the InnerException property.

HttpException(String, Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an error message and an exception code.

HttpException(Int32, String, Exception)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an HTTP response status code, an error message, and the InnerException property.

HttpException(Int32, String, Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an HTTP response status code, an error message, and an exception code.

HttpException()

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class and creates an empty HttpException object.

public:
 HttpException();
public HttpException ();
Public Sub New ()

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the HttpException constructor of the HttpException class. The CheckNumber method accepts a user-entered value through a text box and checks whether it is an integer. If the value is not an integer, an exception is thrown, and then a new HttpException object is created and thrown. That exception is caught in the Button_Click event handler and the error message is displayed on the browser.

Important

This example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.

Remarks

When handling exceptions, it can be useful to capture a series of related exceptions with the outer exception being thrown in response to an inner exception.

A reference to the inner exception that caused the outer exception is available from the InnerException property of the outer exception. This mechanism preserves the error information that is carried by earlier exceptions, including the original exceptions, while allowing you to create more meaningful outer exceptions. For more information, see InnerException.

Applies to

HttpException(String)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using a supplied error message.

public:
 HttpException(System::String ^ message);
public HttpException (string message);
new System.Web.HttpException : string -> System.Web.HttpException
Public Sub New (message As String)

Parameters

message
String

The error message displayed to the client when the exception is thrown.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the HttpException constructor of the HttpException class. An HttpException is thrown if a user-entered value is 0.

Important

This example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.

if (Num == 0)
{
   throw new HttpException("No value entered");
}
If Num = 0 Then
   Throw New HttpException("No value entered")
end if

new System.Web.HttpException : int * string -> System.Web.HttpException
Public Sub New (httpCode As Integer, message As String)

HttpException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class with serialized data.

protected:
 HttpException(System::Runtime::Serialization::SerializationInfo ^ info, System::Runtime::Serialization::StreamingContext context);
protected HttpException (System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo info, System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext context);
new System.Web.HttpException : System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo * System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext -> System.Web.HttpException
Protected Sub New (info As SerializationInfo, context As StreamingContext)

Parameters

info
SerializationInfo

The SerializationInfo that holds the serialized object data about the exception being thrown.

context
StreamingContext

The StreamingContext that holds the contextual information about the source or destination.

Remarks

The HttpException constructor is called during deserialization to reconstitute the exception object that is transmitted over a stream. For more information, see XML and SOAP Serialization.

Applies to

HttpException(String, Exception)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an error message and the InnerException property.

public:
 HttpException(System::String ^ message, Exception ^ innerException);
public HttpException (string message, Exception innerException);
new System.Web.HttpException : string * Exception -> System.Web.HttpException
Public Sub New (message As String, innerException As Exception)

Parameters

message
String

The error message displayed to the client when the exception is thrown.

innerException
Exception

The InnerException, if any, that threw the current exception.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the HttpException constructor of the HttpException class. The CheckNumber method accepts a user-entered value through a text box and checks whether it is an integer. If the value is not an integer, an exception is thrown, and then in the catch block, a new HttpException object is created and thrown. That exception is caught in the Button_Click event handler and the error message is displayed on the browser.

Remarks

When handling exceptions, it can be useful to capture a series of related exceptions with the outer exception being thrown in response to an inner exception.

A reference to the inner exception that caused the outer exception is available from the InnerException property of the outer exception. This mechanism preserves the error information that is carried by earlier exceptions, including the original exceptions, while allowing you to create more meaningful outer exceptions. For more information, see InnerException.

Applies to

HttpException(Int32, String, Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an HTTP response status code, an error message, and an exception code.

public:
 HttpException(int httpCode, System::String ^ message, int hr);
public HttpException (int httpCode, string message, int hr);
new System.Web.HttpException : int * string * int -> System.Web.HttpException
Public Sub New (httpCode As Integer, message As String, hr As Integer)

Parameters

httpCode
Int32

The HTTP response status code displayed on the client.

message
String

The error message displayed to the client when the exception is thrown.

hr
Int32

The exception code that defines the error.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the HttpException constructor of the HttpException class. The user name and email information are entered by the user in the provided text boxes. If any of the text boxes are left blank, an HttpException object is created and thrown. The error code of the HttpException is obtained by the GetHttpCode method and displayed on the Web page.

Important

This example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.
