ExceptionHandlingClause.CatchType Property
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Gets the type of exception handled by this clause.
public:
virtual property Type ^ CatchType { Type ^ get(); };
public:
property Type ^ CatchType { Type ^ get(); };
public virtual Type? CatchType { get; }
public virtual Type CatchType { get; }
public Type CatchType { get; }
member this.CatchType : Type
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property CatchType As Type
Public ReadOnly Property CatchType As Type
Property Value
A Type object that represents that type of exception handled by this clause, or null
if the Flags property is Filter or Finally.
Exceptions
Invalid use of property for the object's current state.
Examples
The following code example defines a test method named MethodBodyExample
, and displays its local variable information and exception-handling clauses. The MethodBase.GetMethodBody method is used to obtain a MethodBody object for the test method. The ExceptionHandlingClauses property is used to obtain a list of ExceptionHandlingClause objects and display their properties.
This code is part of a larger example located in the MethodBody class topic.

Note
Working with exception-handling clauses requires a thorough understanding of metadata and Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) instruction formats. Information can be found in the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) documentation, especially "Partition II: Metadata Definition and Semantics".
