ArgumentOutOfRangeException Class
The exception that is thrown when the value of an argument is outside the allowable range of values as defined by the invoked method.
System::Exception
System::SystemException
System::ArgumentException
System::ArgumentOutOfRangeException
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
The ArgumentOutOfRangeException type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() ![]() | ArgumentOutOfRangeException() | Initializes a new instance of the ArgumentOutOfRangeException class. |
![]() ![]() ![]() | ArgumentOutOfRangeException(String) | Initializes a new instance of the ArgumentOutOfRangeException class with the name of the parameter that causes this exception. |
![]() | ArgumentOutOfRangeException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext) | Initializes a new instance of the ArgumentOutOfRangeException class with serialized data. |
![]() ![]() | ArgumentOutOfRangeException(String, Exception) | Initializes a new instance of the ArgumentOutOfRangeException class with a specified error message and the exception that is the cause of this exception. |
![]() ![]() ![]() | ArgumentOutOfRangeException(String, String) | Initializes a new instance of the ArgumentOutOfRangeException class with a specified error message and the name of the parameter that causes this exception. |
![]() | ArgumentOutOfRangeException(String, Object, String) | Initializes a new instance of the ArgumentOutOfRangeException class with a specified error message, the parameter name, and the value of the argument. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | ActualValue | Gets the argument value that causes this exception. |
![]() | Data | Gets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() | HelpLink | Gets or sets a link to the help file associated with this exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | HResult | Gets or sets HRESULT, a coded numerical value that is assigned to a specific exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | InnerException | Gets the Exception instance that caused the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | Message | Gets the error message and the string representation of the invalid argument value, or only the error message if the argument value is null. (Overrides ArgumentException::Message.) In XNA Framework 3.0, this member is inherited from Exception::Message. In Portable Class Library Portable Class Library, this member is inherited from Exception::Message. |
![]() | ParamName | Gets the name of the parameter that causes this exception. (Inherited from ArgumentException.) |
![]() | Source | Gets or sets the name of the application or the object that causes the error. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | StackTrace | Gets a string representation of the immediate frames on the call stack. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() | TargetSite | Gets the method that throws the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() ![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | GetBaseException | When overridden in a derived class, returns the Exception that is the root cause of one or more subsequent exceptions. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetObjectData | Sets the SerializationInfo object with the invalid argument value and additional exception information. (Overrides ArgumentException::GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext).) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | GetType | Gets the runtime type of the current instance. (Inherited from Exception.) In XNA Framework 3.0, this member is inherited from Object::GetType(). In Portable Class Library Portable Class Library, this member is inherited from Object::GetType(). |
![]() ![]() ![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | ToString | Creates and returns a string representation of the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | SerializeObjectState | Occurs when an exception is serialized to create an exception state object that contains serialized data about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
ArgumentOutOfRangeException is thrown when a method is invoked and at least one of the arguments passed to the method is not nullptr and does not contain a valid value.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException is used extensively by:
Classes in the System.Collections and System.IO namespaces.
The Array class.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException behaves identically to ArgumentException. It is provided so that application code can differentiate between exceptions caused by invalid arguments that are not nullptr, and exceptions caused by null arguments. For errors caused by null arguments, see ArgumentNullException.
ArgumentOutOfRangeException uses the HRESULT COR_E_ARGUMENTOUTOFRANGE, which has the value 0x80131502.
For a list of initial property values for an instance of ArgumentOutOfRangeException, see the ArgumentOutOfRangeException constructors.
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows XP SP2 x64 Edition, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
