SpeechRecognitionEngine.RecognizeAsyncStop Method

Definition

Stops asynchronous recognition after the current recognition operation completes.

public:
 void RecognizeAsyncStop();
public void RecognizeAsyncStop ();
member this.RecognizeAsyncStop : unit -> unit
Public Sub RecognizeAsyncStop ()

Examples

The following example shows part of a console application that demonstrates the use of the RecognizeAsyncStop method. The example creates and loads a speech recognition grammar, initiates a continuing asynchronous recognition operation, and then pauses 2 seconds before it stops the operation. The recognizer receives input from the file, c:\temp\audioinput\sample.wav. Event handlers are included to demonstrate the events that the recognizer raises during the operation.

Remarks

This method finalizes asynchronous recognition without truncating input. If the current asynchronous recognition operation is receiving input, the recognizer continues accepting input until the current recognition operation is completed. The recognizer raises the RecognizeCompleted or EmulateRecognizeCompleted event when an asynchronous operation is stopped, and sets the Cancelled property of the RecognizeCompletedEventArgs to true. This method stops asynchronous operations initiated by the RecognizeAsync and EmulateRecognizeAsync methods.

To immediately cancel asynchronous recognition with only the existing input, use the RecognizeAsyncCancel method.
