FieldAccessException

Synopsis

This exception is thrown when you try to access a protected or private field that you would not normally have access to. Most compilers will not let you compile code that does this directly. However, late-bound code can sneak by the compiler and throw this exception at runtime. For example, if you lack sufficient privileges to modify a field using System.Reflection.FieldInfo.SetValue(), this exception is thrown.
