Remarks

If a proxy exception has not been mapped for the original exception, the Message property of an AddInException contains the fully qualified type name of the original exception, followed by the fully qualified type names of each of the inner exceptions, and finally the text returned by the ToString method of the original exception. Otherwise, if a proxy exception has been mapped for the original exception, the proxy exception is thrown.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
