WS_E_NUMERIC_OVERFLOW
WS_E_NUMERIC_OVERFLOW is a Windows Web Services API HRESULT. It means that converting, parsing, calculating, or serializing a numeric value would exceed the valid range for the target type.
What to check for WS_E_NUMERIC_OVERFLOW
- Verify the declared numeric type, bounds and units in the message contract.
- Check integer conversions, length calculations, offsets and size multiplications for overflow before the API call.
- Reject invalid input explicitly instead of truncating or wrapping the numeric value.
Diagnostic interpretation
This result has the HRESULT value 0x803D0002. AllStat records the condition as “The operation could not be completed because it would lead to numeric overflow.”.
Evidence to capture
- Capture any IErrorInfo text, activity identifier, event-log entry, and subsystem trace that mentions this result or the ws / numeric / overflow operation.
- Preserve the first failure in the call chain; a later HRESULT can describe cleanup rather than the original ws / numeric / overflow condition.
