Exception to throw when expecting a null value?

Question

If I am expecting a null value and get a defined value (within a getter of a property) and want to throw an exception, what would be the proper way to do this in csharp? Is there anything defined already that makes sense in this situation?

Answer 1

My guess would be:

throw new
    ArgumentException("Parameter was expected to be null, value was provided.");

ArgumentOutOfRangeException might also work, but is typically used when there is a well defined range rather than null vs. not null.

Answer 2

I would probably use ArgumentOutOfRangeException
