Remarks

When using a WCF REST endpoint (WebHttpBinding and WebHttpBehavior or WebScriptEnablingBehavior) the HTTP status code on the response is set accordingly. However, WebFaultException can be used with non-REST endpoints and behaves like a regular FaultException.

When using a WCF REST endpoint, the response format of the serialized fault is determined in the same way as a non-fault response. For more information about WCF REST formatting, see WCF Web HTTP Formatting.

Constructors

WebFaultException(HttpStatusCode)	Initializes a new instance of the WebFaultException class with the specified HttpStatusCode.
WebFaultException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)	Initializes a new instance of the WebFaultException class with the specified SerializationInfo and StreamingContext.
