Example

The following example demonstrates catching an exception type that derives from ApplicationException. There is, however, no valid scenerio for catching an ApplicationException type.

using System;
using System.Reflection;

namespace Samples
{
  public class ApplicationExceptionSample
  {
    public static void Main()
    {
      try
      {
        Type t = typeof(string);
        MethodInfo m = t.GetMethod("EndsWith");
        string s = "Hello world!";
        object[] arguments = {"world!", "!"};
        Console.WriteLine(m.Invoke(s, arguments));
      }
      catch(ApplicationException e)
      {
        Console.WriteLine("Exception: {0}", e);
      }
    }
  }
}

The output is

 Exception: System.Reflection.TargetParameterCountException: Parameter count mismatch. at System.Reflection.RuntimeMethodInfo.InternalInvoke(Object obj, BindingFlags ...
