Syntax

public enum WatchdogBehavior

Members

  Member name Description
DebugBreak_Managed Injects a WatchdogException into the current managed thread. This will only work for native methods that take longer than the allotted watchdog timeout. If the system is truly hung, then the exception will not be seen.
DebugBreak_Native Intended for native debugging, as when using the Porting Kit. Stops execution at the native level.
EnterBooter Enters the bootloader and waits for commands.
HardReboot Performs a hardware reboot of the device.
None Continues execution. Might leave the system in a stalled state.
SoftReboot Performs a software reboot of the CLR. If the device does not support soft reboot, a hard reboot will occur.

Remarks

All behavior types will attempt to log a watchdog event, which can be retrieved with the LastOccurrence property on the Watchdog class.

Version Information

Available in the .NET Micro Framework versions 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2.
