This example shows what happens if you attempt to use reflection to call a method that does not exist and access a field that does not exist. The application recovers by catching the MissingMethodException, MissingFieldException, and MissingMemberException.

Normally a compilation error is generated if code attempts to access a nonexistent method of a class. MissingMethodException is designed to handle cases where an attempt is made to dynamically access a renamed or deleted method of an assembly that is not referenced by its strong name. MissingMethodException is thrown when code in a dependent assembly attempts to access a missing method in an assembly that was modified.
MissingMethodException uses the HRESULT COR_E_MISSINGMETHOD, that has the value 0x80131513.
For a list of initial property values for an instance of MissingMethodException, see the MissingMethodException constructors.
The exact timing of when statically referenced methods are loaded is unspecified. This exception may be thrown before the method that references the missing method starts executing.
Constructors Fields Properties DataGets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception.
(Inherited from Exception) HelpLinkGets or sets a link to the help file associated with this exception.
(Inherited from Exception) HResultGets or sets HRESULT, a coded numerical value that is assigned to a specific exception.
(Inherited from Exception) InnerExceptionGets the Exception instance that caused the current exception.
(Inherited from Exception) MessageGets the text string showing the class name, the method name, and the signature of the missing method. This property is read-only.
SourceGets or sets the name of the application or the object that causes the error.
(Inherited from Exception) StackTraceGets a string representation of the immediate frames on the call stack.
(Inherited from Exception) TargetSiteGets the method that throws the current exception.
(Inherited from Exception) Methods Events SerializeObjectStateObsolete.
Occurs when an exception is serialized to create an exception state object that contains serialized data about the exception.
