ValidationError Class
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
Represents a validation error that is generated by the binding engine when an exception occurs during target-to-source updates.
Assembly: System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)
The ValidationError type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | ErrorContent | Gets the error message. |
![]() | Exception | Gets the exception that caused the validation error. |
| 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.) |
![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |

The validation error can occur when the data source is updated from the target in TwoWay bindings. A ValidationError object is created by the binding engine and included in ValidationErrorEventArgs when the BindingValidationError event is handled.
