Question

How I can to create OperationAbortedException? This code does not work:

var ex = new OperationAbortedException("Cannot update event comment");

ERROR: Cannot access private constructor ‘OperationAbortedException’.

Answer 1

If you are talking about the System.Data.OperationAbortedException then no, you can not construct an instance directly, there are no public consrtuctors.

If you really wanted to, you could use reflection with the method described in this answer, but I reccomend that you do not. It would be a corruption of the framework’s design.

Here is the code you could use but, please don’t.

var ctor = typeof(OperationAbortException).GetConstructor(
    BindingFlags.NonPublic|BindingFlags.Instance,
    null, 
    new Type[0], 
    null);
var instance = (OperationAbortException)ctor.Invoke(null);

You’d have to work out which private constructor to use, if there is more than one, and which properties should be set to what. There is no garauntee that this behaviour would persist in later framework versions.
