Remarks

This exception is typically thrown when the access level of a method in a class library is changed, and one or more assemblies referencing the library have not been recompiled.

MethodAccessException uses the HRESULT COR_E_METHODACCESS, that has the value 0x80131510.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of MethodAccessException, see the MethodAccessException constructors.
