Remarks

The DbException class is an abstract class used as the base class for provider-specific exception class implementations.

For general information about handling exceptions for a .NET Framework data provider, see SqlException.

Constructors

DbException()

Initializes a new instance of the DbException class.
DbException(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)

Initializes a new instance of the DbException class with the specified serialization information and context.
DbException(String)

Initializes a new instance of the DbException class with the specified error message.
DbException(String, Exception)

Initializes a new instance of the DbException class with the specified error message and a reference to the inner exception that is the cause of this exception.
DbException(String, Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the DbException class with the specified error message and error code.

Properties

Data

Gets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception.

(Inherited from Exception)
ErrorCode

Gets the HRESULT of the error.

(Inherited from ExternalException)
HelpLink

Gets or sets a link to the help file associated with this exception.

(Inherited from Exception)
HResult

Gets or sets HRESULT, a coded numerical value that is assigned to a specific exception.

(Inherited from Exception)
InnerException

Gets the Exception instance that caused the current exception.

(Inherited from Exception)
IsTransient

Indicates whether the error represented by this DbException could be a transient error, i.e. if retrying the triggering operation may succeed without any other change.
Message

Gets a message that describes the current exception.

(Inherited from Exception)
Source

Gets or sets the name of the application or the object that causes the error.

(Inherited from Exception)
SqlState

For database providers which support it, contains a standard SQL 5-character return code indicating the success or failure of the database operation. The first 2 characters represent the class of the return code (e.g. error, success), while the last 3 characters represent the subclass, allowing detection of error scenarios in a database-portable way.

For database providers which don't support it, or for inapplicable error scenarios, contains null.

StackTrace

Gets a string representation of the immediate frames on the call stack.

(Inherited from Exception)
TargetSite

Gets the method that throws the current exception.

(Inherited from Exception)

Methods

Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(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 the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)

When overridden in a derived class, sets the SerializationInfo with information about the exception.

(Inherited from Exception)
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)
ToString()

Returns a string that contains the HRESULT of the error.

(Inherited from ExternalException)

Events

SerializeObjectState

Occurs when an exception is serialized to create an exception state object that contains serialized data about the exception.
