PictureBox::Load Method (String^)
Sets the ImageLocation to the specified URL and displays the image indicated.
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
Parameters
- url
-
Type:
System::String^
The path for the image to display in the PictureBox.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| InvalidOperationException | url is null or an empty string. |
| WebException | url refers to an image on the Web that cannot be accessed. |
| ArgumentException | url refers to a file that is not an image. |
| FileNotFoundException | url refers to a file that does not exist. |
If the url parameter indicates a local file, the recommended format is a local file path. For example, an image file named myPicture.jpglocated atc:\ would be accessed by passing c:\myPicture.jpg for the url parameter. A full path, such as http://www.contoso.com/path/images/image.jpg, or a relative path, such as ./images/image.jpg, can be used. If a relative path is used, it will be considered relative to the working directory. A call to the Load method sets the ImageLocation property to the value of url.
