Exceptions

Exception Description

Exception	Description
System.ArgumentNullException	A `null` reference (`Nothing` in Visual Basic) is passed to a method that does not accept it as a valid argument. This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.
OpcLabs.BaseLib.Navigation.Parsing.BrowsePathFormatException	The browse path cannot be parsed.

System.ArgumentNullException

A null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is passed to a method that does not accept it as a valid argument.

This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.

OpcLabs.BaseLib.Navigation.Parsing.BrowsePathFormatException The browse path cannot be parsed.

Remarks

If no base path is given, the input browse path must be absolute.

No levels above the base path can be referenced. If you want to allow this, use an overload with maximumParentDepth argument.
