Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the HttpException class to raise customized exceptions. The Button_Click method determines which button was clicked, and then calls either the CheckNumber or CheckBoolean method. If the user-entered value in the text box does not correspond to the expected type, an HttpException exception is created and thrown with a customized message based on the error type.

Important

This example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.

Remarks

The HttpException class is an HTTP-specific exception class that enables ASP.NET to generate exception information. For more information about throwing and handling exceptions, see Exceptions.

Constructors

HttpException()	Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class and creates an empty HttpException object.
HttpException(Int32, String)	Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an HTTP response status code and an error message.
HttpException(Int32, String, Exception)	Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an HTTP response status code, an error message, and the InnerException property.
HttpException(Int32, String, Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an HTTP response status code, an error message, and an exception code.
HttpException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)	Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class with serialized data.
HttpException(String)	Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using a supplied error message.
HttpException(String, Exception)	Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an error message and the InnerException property.
HttpException(String, Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the HttpException class using an error message and an exception code.

Properties

Data	Gets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception. (Inherited from Exception)
ErrorCode	Gets the `HRESULT` of the error. (Inherited from ExternalException)
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)
WebEventCode	Gets the event codes that are associated with the HTTP exception.

Methods

CreateFromLastError(String)	Creates a new HttpException exception based on the error code that is returned from the Windows API `GetLastError()` method.
Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (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 the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetHtmlErrorMessage()	Gets the HTML error message to return to the client.
GetHttpCode()	Gets the HTTP response status code to return to the client.
GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)	Gets information about the exception and adds it to the SerializationInfo object.
GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)	Obsolete. 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)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that contains the HRESULT of the error. (Inherited from ExternalException)

Events

SerializeObjectState

Obsolete.
