InvalidOperationException Class
The exception that is thrown when a method call is invalid for the object's current state.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
The InvalidOperationException type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() ![]() | InvalidOperationException() | Initializes a new instance of the InvalidOperationException class. |
![]() ![]() ![]() | InvalidOperationException(String) | Initializes a new instance of the InvalidOperationException class with a specified error message. |
![]() | InvalidOperationException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext) | Initializes a new instance of the InvalidOperationException class with serialized data. |
![]() ![]() ![]() | InvalidOperationException(String, Exception) | Initializes a new instance of the InvalidOperationException class with a specified error message and a reference to the inner exception that is the cause of this exception. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | 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 a message that describes the current exception. (Inherited from 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 | 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 | When overridden in a derived class, sets the SerializationInfo with information about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() ![]() ![]() | 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.) |
InvalidOperationException is used in cases when the failure to invoke a method is caused by reasons other than invalid arguments. For example, InvalidOperationException is thrown by:
MoveNext if objects of a collection are modified after the enumerator is created.
GetString if the resource set is closed before the method call is made.
If the method invocation failure is due to invalid arguments, then ArgumentException or one of its derived classes, ArgumentNullException or ArgumentOutOfRangeException, should be thrown instead.
The Ldflda Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) instruction throws InvalidOperationException.
InvalidOperationException uses the HRESULT COR_E_INVALIDOPERATION, which has the value 0x80131509.
