[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
The exception that is thrown as a wrapper around the exception thrown by the class initializer. This class cannot be inherited.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
The TypeInitializationException type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | TypeInitializationException | Initializes a new instance of the TypeInitializationException class with the default error message, the specified type name, and a reference to the inner exception that is the root 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 frames on the call stack at the time the current exception was thrown. (Inherited from Exception.) |
![]() | TypeName | Gets the fully qualified name of the type that fails to initialize. |
| 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.) |
When a class initializer fails to initialize a type, a TypeInitializationException is created and passed a reference to the exception thrown by the type's class initializer. The InnerException property of TypeInitializationException holds the underlying exception.
TypeInitializationException uses the HRESULT COR_E_TYPEINITIALIZATION, that has the value 0x80131534.
