  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
System.Windows.Forms
Assembly:
System.Windows.Forms.dll

Gets or sets a value indicating whether to throw the exception after the DataGridViewDataErrorEventHandler delegate is finished with it.

public:
 property bool ThrowException { bool get(); void set(bool value); };
public bool ThrowException { get; set; }
member this.ThrowException : bool with get, set
Public Property ThrowException As Boolean

Property Value

Boolean

true if the exception should be thrown; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Exceptions

ArgumentException

When setting this property to true, the Exception property value is null.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates using the ThrowException property to indicate that the exception should not be thrown. This example is part of a larger example available in the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn class overview topic.

private:
    void DataGridView1_DataError(Object^ sender, DataGridViewDataErrorEventArgs^ anError)
    {

        MessageBox::Show("Error happened " + anError->Context.ToString());

        if (anError->Context == DataGridViewDataErrorContexts::Commit)
        {
            MessageBox::Show("Commit error");
        }
        if (anError->Context == DataGridViewDataErrorContexts::CurrentCellChange)
        {
            MessageBox::Show("Cell change");
        }
        if (anError->Context == DataGridViewDataErrorContexts::Parsing)
        {
            MessageBox::Show("parsing error");
        }
        if (anError->Context == DataGridViewDataErrorContexts::LeaveControl)
        {
            MessageBox::Show("leave control error");
        }

        if (dynamic_cast<ConstraintException^>(anError->Exception) != nullptr)
        {
            DataGridView^ view = (DataGridView^)sender;
            view->Rows[anError->RowIndex]->ErrorText = "an error";
            view->Rows[anError->RowIndex]->Cells[anError->ColumnIndex]->ErrorText = "an error";

            anError->ThrowException = false;
        }
    }

private void DataGridView1_DataError(object sender, DataGridViewDataErrorEventArgs anError)
{

    MessageBox.Show("Error happened " + anError.Context.ToString());

    if (anError.Context == DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.Commit)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Commit error");
    }
    if (anError.Context == DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.CurrentCellChange)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Cell change");
    }
    if (anError.Context == DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.Parsing)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("parsing error");
    }
    if (anError.Context == DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.LeaveControl)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("leave control error");
    }

    if ((anError.Exception) is ConstraintException)
    {
        DataGridView view = (DataGridView)sender;
        view.Rows[anError.RowIndex].ErrorText = "an error";
        view.Rows[anError.RowIndex].Cells[anError.ColumnIndex].ErrorText = "an error";

        anError.ThrowException = false;
    }
}

Private Sub DataGridView1_DataError(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As DataGridViewDataErrorEventArgs) _
Handles DataGridView1.DataError

    MessageBox.Show("Error happened " _
        & e.Context.ToString())

    If (e.Context = DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.Commit) _
        Then
        MessageBox.Show("Commit error")
    End If
    If (e.Context = DataGridViewDataErrorContexts _
        .CurrentCellChange) Then
        MessageBox.Show("Cell change")
    End If
    If (e.Context = DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.Parsing) _
        Then
        MessageBox.Show("parsing error")
    End If
    If (e.Context = _
        DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.LeaveControl) Then
        MessageBox.Show("leave control error")
    End If

    If (TypeOf (e.Exception) Is ConstraintException) Then
        Dim view As DataGridView = CType(sender, DataGridView)
        view.Rows(e.RowIndex).ErrorText = "an error"
        view.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(e.ColumnIndex) _
            .ErrorText = "an error"

        e.ThrowException = False
    End If
End Sub

Remarks

Set this property to false if the DataGridViewDataErrorEventHandler has dealt with the exception represented by the Exception property, and you do not want to propagate the exception to another DataGridViewDataErrorEventHandler that may handle the DataError event.

For debugging purposes, it can be useful to propagate the exception and inspect the stack trace for information regarding the context of the error.
