![]() | EndpointNotFoundException() | Initializes a new instance of the EndpointNotFoundException class. |
![]() | EndpointNotFoundException(String) | Initializes a new instance of the EndpointNotFoundException class with a specified error message. |
![]() | EndpointNotFoundException(String, Exception) | Initializes a new instance of the EndpointNotFoundException class with a specified error message and the inner exception that caused the current 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 frames on the call stack at the time the current exception was thrown. (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 the Object 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.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the runtime type of the current instance. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() | 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.) |
The endpoint might not be found or reachable because the remote endpoint is down, the remote endpoint is unreachable, or the remote network is unreachable.
This exception derives from CommunicationException that represents a class of recoverable errors that may be thrown during communication between endpoints and that robust client Windows Phone apps are expected to handle. To prevent a handler for the CommunicationException handler from catching the more specific EndpointNotFoundException, catch this exception prior to handling CommunicationException.
