DirectoryNotFoundException Constructor (String, Exception)
Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.
This API supports the .NET Framework infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
Initializes a new instance of the DirectoryNotFoundException class with a specified error message and a reference to the inner exception that is the cause of this exception.
Namespace: System.IO
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Sub New ( _
message As String, _
innerException As Exception _
)
public DirectoryNotFoundException(
string message,
Exception innerException
)
Parameters
- message
Type: System.String
The error message that explains the reason for the exception.
- innerException
Type: System.Exception
The exception that is the cause of the current exception. If the innerException parameter is not nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), the current exception is raised in a catch block that handles the inner exception.
Remarks
An exception that is thrown as a direct result of a previous exception should include a reference to the previous exception in the InnerException property. The InnerException property returns the same value that is passed into the constructor, or nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the InnerException property does not supply the inner exception value to the constructor.
The following table shows the initial property values for an instance of DirectoryNotFoundException.
