C# NotImplementedException

A NotImplementedException has been thrown. An exception's type helps us learn the reason the
exception was thrown. The NotImplementedException indicates in a clear way that the
functionality being requested was simply not implemented.
Example
Method call
To start, the NotImplementedException is not a debugging construct, but it should not be thrown
in completed programs. When adding a method, you may want the method to exist but you may
not be able to implement it yet.
And:This can help with a complex system as it is developed. This example uses
NotImplementedException in an unimplemented method.
Program that uses NotImplementedException: C#
using System;
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Method();
}
static int Method()
{
// Leave this as a stub.
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
}
Result
Exception message is printed to screen.
In the example, please notice how the method returns an integer value. A compile-time error
would occur if the method simply had a blank body. The NotImplementedException prevents this
from happening and so keeps the program compilable.
Programming tip
Self-documenting type. When using exceptions, you want to describe the problem as much as
possible through the type itself. In error messages, the type of the exception is prominently
featured.
Therefore:When the NotImplementedException occurs, you will realize that the problem is
unfinished codenot another error.
Summary
Through specific exception types, you can accurately describe the problems that occur in your
program. As a descriptive exception type, the NotImplementedException is useful as a way to
compile an unfinished program.
Finally:Visual Studio inserts the NotImplementedException in method stubs such as in Windows
Forms programs, making it a known standard
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{

try
{
FutureFeature();
}
catch (NotImplementedException notImp)
{
Console.WriteLine(notImp.Message);
// O/P=The Method or Operation is not implemented
Console.ReadLine();
}
}

static void FutureFeature()


{
// Not developed yet.
throw new NotImplementedException();
}

Stub: The usually short end remaining after something bigger has been used up: a pencil stub; a
cigarette stub
