Article
10/22/2007

The exception thrown when the underlying provider returns a warning or error from a SQL Server Mobile data source. This class cannot be inherited.

Namespace: System.Data.SqlServerCe
Assembly: System.Data.SqlServerCe (in system.data.sqlserverce.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Class SqlCeException
    Inherits SystemException
'Usage
Dim instance As SqlCeException

public class SqlCeException : SystemException

public ref class SqlCeException : public SystemException

public class SqlCeException extends SystemException

public class SqlCeException extends SystemException

Remarks

This class is created whenever the .NET Compact Framework Data Provider for SQL Server Mobile encounters an error generated from within the SQL Server Mobile Engine. (Other errors are thrown as standard common language runtime exceptions.) SqlCeException always contains at least one instance of SqlCeError.

Example

The following example generates a SqlCeException due to a missing data source, and then displays the exception.

Dim conn As New SqlCeConnection("Data Source=nonExistingSource.sdf;")

Try
    conn.Open()
Catch e As SqlCeException
    ' Use SqlCeException properties if you need specific
    ' application logic depending on the error condition
    '
    If 25046 = e.NativeError Then 'SSCE_M_FILENOTFOUND
        ' Error specific logic goes here...
        '
    End If

    MessageBox.Show(e.Message)
End Try

SqlCeConnection conn = new SqlCeConnection("Data Source=nonExistingSource.sdf;");

try
{
    conn.Open();

catch (SqlCeException e)
{
    // Use SqlCeException properties if you need specific
    // application logic depending on the error condition
    //
    if (25046 == e.NativeError /*SSCE_M_FILENOTFOUND*/)
    {
        // Error specific logic goes here...
        //
    

    MessageBox.Show(e.Message);
