MessageHeaderException Constructor (String, Exception)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Initializes a new instance of the MessageHeaderException class using the specified message and the inner exception that caused the exception.

Namespace:  System.ServiceModel
Assembly:  System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub New ( _
    message As String, _
    innerException As Exception _
)

public MessageHeaderException(
    string message,
    Exception innerException
)

Parameters

Remarks

Use this constructor when you want to pass an error message and information about an inner exception up to the user. The content of the message parameter should be understandable to the intended users.

An exception that is thrown as a direct result of a previous exception can 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 a nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the InnerException property does not supply the inner exception value to the constructor.
