MethodAccessException Class
The exception that is thrown when there is an invalid attempt to access a method, such as accessing a private method from partially trusted code.
System::Exception
System::SystemException
System::MemberAccessException
System::MethodAccessException
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
The MethodAccessException type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | MethodAccessException() | Initializes a new instance of the MethodAccessException class, setting the Message property of the new instance to a system-supplied message that describes the error, such as "Attempt to access the method failed." This message takes into account the current system culture. |
![]() ![]() | MethodAccessException(String) | Initializes a new instance of the MethodAccessException class with a specified error message. |
![]() | MethodAccessException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext) | Initializes a new instance of the MethodAccessException class with serialized data. |
![]() ![]() | MethodAccessException(String, Exception) | Initializes a new instance of the MethodAccessException 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(). |
![]() ![]() | 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.) |
This exception is thrown in situations such as the following:
A private, protected, or internal method that would not be accessible from normal compiled code is accessed from partially trusted code by using reflection.
A security-critical method is accessed from transparent code.
The access level of a method in a class library has changed, and one or more assemblies that reference the library have not been recompiled.
Note |
|---|
Beginning with the .NET Framework version 4, the common language runtime treats application code as transparent when it is run with partial trust. See Security Considerations for Reflection. |
MethodAccessException uses the HRESULT COR_E_METHODACCESS, that has the value 0x80131510.

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.
