| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Win32Exception() | Initializes a new instance of the Win32Exception class with the last Win32 error that occurred. |
![]() | Win32Exception(Int32) | Initializes a new instance of the Win32Exception class with the specified error. |
![]() | Win32Exception(Int32, String^) | Initializes a new instance of the Win32Exception class with the specified error and the specified detailed description. |
![]() | Win32Exception(SerializationInfo^, StreamingContext) | Initializes a new instance of the Win32Exception class with the specified context and the serialization information. |
![]() | Win32Exception(String^) | Initializes a new instance of the Win32Exception class with the specified detailed description. |
![]() | Win32Exception(String^, Exception^) | Initializes a new instance of the Win32Exception class with the specified detailed description and the specified exception. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Data | Gets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception.(Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() | ErrorCode | Gets the HRESULT of the error.(Inherited from ExternalException.) |
![]() | 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 | |
![]() | Message | Gets a message that describes the current exception.(Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() | NativeErrorCode | Gets the Win32 error code associated with this exception. |
![]() | 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() | |
![]() | GetHashCode() | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetObjectData(SerializationInfo^, StreamingContext) | Sets the SerializationInfo object with the file name and line number at which this Win32Exception occurred.(Overrides Exception::GetObjectData(SerializationInfo^, StreamingContext).) |
![]() | GetType() | Gets the runtime type of the current instance.(Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone() | |
![]() | ToString() | Returns a string that contains the HRESULT of the error.(Inherited from ExternalException.) |
| 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.) |
Win32 error codes are translated from their numeric representations into a system message when they are displayed. Use NativeErrorCode to access the numeric representation of the error code associated with this exception. For more information about the error codes, see "Win32 Error Codes" in the Platform SDK documentation at http://msdn.microsoft.com.
The following code example shows how to catch a Win32 exception and interpret its content. The example attempts to start a nonexistent executable, which results in a Win32 exception. Upon catching the exception, the example fetches the respective error message, code, and origin of the exception.
try { System::Diagnostics::Process^ myProc = gcnew System::Diagnostics::Process; //Attempting to start a non-existing executable myProc->StartInfo->FileName = "c:\nonexist.exe"; //Start the application and assign it to the process component. myProc->Start(); } catch ( Win32Exception^ w ) { Console::WriteLine( w->Message ); Console::WriteLine( w->ErrorCode ); Console::WriteLine( w->NativeErrorCode ); Console::WriteLine( w->StackTrace ); Console::WriteLine( w->Source ); Exception^ e = w->GetBaseException(); Console::WriteLine( e->Message ); }
