ArgumentException Class

The exception that is thrown when one of the arguments provided to a method is not valid.

Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

[SerializableAttribute]
public class ArgumentException : SystemException

Remarks

An ArgumentException exception is thrown when a method is called and at least one of the passed arguments does not meet the parameter specification for that method. Every instance of the ArgumentException class should carry a meaningful error message describing the invalid argument, as well as the expected range of values for that argument.
