Exception for missing data

Question

I was wondering what kind of exception should one throw for missing data. For example if an xml node doesn\'t contain data. It would be easy to \"throw new Exception(...

Answer 1

There is also System.Data.ObjectNotFoundException class which you may consider.

Update: As of Entity Framework 6, this exception class' fully qualified name is System.Data.Entity.Core.ObjectNotFoundException.

See this question for further details on EF5->EF6 namespace changes.
