Initializes a new instance of the COMException class from serialization data.

protected:
 COMException(System::Runtime::Serialization::SerializationInfo ^ info, System::Runtime::Serialization::StreamingContext context);
protected COMException (System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo info, System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext context);
[System.Obsolete("This API supports obsolete formatter-based serialization. It should not be called or extended by application code.", DiagnosticId="SYSLIB0051", UrlFormat="https://aka.ms/dotnet-warnings/{0}")]
protected COMException (System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo info, System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext context);
new System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException : System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo * System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext -> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
[<System.Obsolete("This API supports obsolete formatter-based serialization. It should not be called or extended by application code.", DiagnosticId="SYSLIB0051", UrlFormat="https://aka.ms/dotnet-warnings/{0}")>]
new System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException : System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo * System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext -> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
Protected Sub New (info As SerializationInfo, context As StreamingContext)

Parameters

info
SerializationInfo

The SerializationInfo object that holds the serialized object data.

context
StreamingContext

The StreamingContext object that supplies the contextual information about the source or destination.

Source:
COMException.cs
Source:
COMException.cs
Source:
COMException.cs

Initializes a new instance of the COMException class with a specified error message and a reference to the inner exception that is the cause of this exception.

public:
 COMException(System::String ^ message, Exception ^ inner);
public COMException (string message, Exception inner);
public COMException (string? message, Exception? inner);
new System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException : string * Exception -> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
Public Sub New (message As String, inner As Exception)

Parameters

message
String

The error message that explains the reason for the exception.

inner
Exception

The exception that is the cause of the current exception. If the inner parameter is not null, 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 null if the InnerException property does not supply the inner exception value to the constructor.

The following table shows how this constructor sets the properties of the Exception object.

Property Value
InnerException The inner exception reference.
Message The error message string.
