public sealed class DecoderFallbackException : ArgumentException

The DecoderFallbackException type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	DecoderFallbackException()	Initializes a new instance of the DecoderFallbackException class.
	DecoderFallbackException(String)	Initializes a new instance of the DecoderFallbackException class. A parameter specifies the error message.
	DecoderFallbackException(String, Exception)	Initializes a new instance of the DecoderFallbackException class. Parameters specify the error message and the inner exception that is the cause of this exception.
	DecoderFallbackException(String, array<Byte[], Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the DecoderFallbackException class. Parameters specify the error message, the array of bytes being decoded, and the index of the byte that cannot be decoded.

Properties

	Name	Description
	BytesUnknown	Gets the input byte sequence that caused the exception.
	Data	Gets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception. (Inherited from Exception.)
	HResult	Gets or sets HRESULT, a coded numerical value that is assigned to a specific exception. (Inherited from Exception.)
	Index	Gets the index position in the input byte sequence of the byte that caused the exception.
	InnerException	Gets the Exception instance that caused the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.)
	Message	Gets the error message and the parameter name, or only the error message if no parameter name is set. (Inherited from ArgumentException.)
	StackTrace	Gets a string representation of the frames on the call stack at the time the current exception was thrown. (Inherited from Exception.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (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 a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	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	Creates and returns a string representation of the current exception. (Inherited from Exception.)

Remarks

When using the standard decoders, a DecoderFallbackException is thrown only if an attempt to decode a sequence of bytes fails and the value of the throwOnInvalidBytes argument was set to true in the Encoding implementation's class constructor.

Examples

The following example provides a possible handler for a DecoderFallbackException. It decodes a UTF8-encoded string in which two bytes have been modified so that they cannot be successfully decoded. When the exception handler is invoked, it decodes the byte array on a byte-by-byte basis and substitutes the asterisk (*) character for any bytes that cannot be successfully decoded.
