Example

The following example creates a MenuActivity instance named chooseSize, sets a number of properties on the instance, and registers an event handler for the TurnStarting event. The highlighted line of code identifies chooseSize_TurnStarting as the handler for this event.

this.chooseSize = new Microsoft.SpeechServer.Dialog.MenuActivity();
this.chooseSize.CanBargeIn = true;
this.chooseSize.ConfirmationThreshold = 1F;
this.chooseSize.DataField = "";
this.chooseSize.DataMember = "";
this.chooseSize.DataSource = null;
this.chooseSize.CompleteTimeout = System.TimeSpan.Parse("00:00:01.5000000");
this.chooseSize.InitialSilenceTimeout = System.TimeSpan.Parse("00:00:01.5000000");
this.chooseSize.Name = "chooseSize";
this.chooseSize.SynonymsField = "";
this.chooseSize.UseDefaultGrammars = true;
this.chooseSize.ConfirmationTurnStarting += new System.EventHandler<Microsoft.SpeechServer.Dialog.TurnStartingEventArgs>(this.chooseSize_ConfirmationTurnStarting);
this.chooseSize.TurnStarting += new System.EventHandler<Microsoft.SpeechServer.Dialog.TurnStartingEventArgs>(this.chooseSize_TurnStarting);
this.Activities.Add(this.chooseSize);

Remarks

The activity selects the prompt to play (such as main, silence, and escalated silence) before raising this event. This selection is based on the dialog history. The selection is available from the PromptType property on TurnStartingEventArgs.
