AnalysisWarning.BackgroundException Property
The Exception that is thrown if an exception occurs in during background analysis of ink.
Namespace: Microsoft.Ink
Assembly: Microsoft.Ink.Analysis (in microsoft.ink.analysis.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property BackgroundException As Exception
'Usage
Dim instance As AnalysisWarning
Dim value As Exception
value = instance.BackgroundException
public Exception BackgroundException { get; }
public:
property Exception^ BackgroundException {
Exception^ get ();
}
/** @property */
public Exception get_BackgroundException ()
public function get BackgroundException () : Exception
Not applicable.
Property Value
The Exception that was thrown during background analysis.
Remarks
If an Exception occurs after a call to InkAnalyzerBase.BackgroundAnalyze, then the exception cannot be thrown because it is occurring in a different thread and there would be no way to catch it. Instead, in the ResultsUpdated event handler, the Status property of the ResultsUpdatedEventArgs object will have an AnalysisWarning object of type BackgroundException in its Warnings collection. The BackgroundException property of this AnalysisWarning object will contain the Exception that was thrown during background analysis. In general, you will want to rethrow this Exception so that it can be caught elsewhere in your application. From this point on the ink analyzer is unusable and it should be reinstantiated.
Example
The following example shows an AnalysisWarning, warning, which is checked to see if it is associated with any hints. If the AnalysisWarning is of type BackgroundException , then you should attempt to save as much document state as possible and then rethrow the exception so that it can be caught by an exception handler. Even if no exception handler is in place, then a program error debugger, such as Dr. Watson, can be invoked. The InkAnalyzer will need to be reinitialized after catching the exception.
