How to Catch Twain Exceptions and Display my own User Defined Error Messages

Hi,

Subject: How to Catch Twain Exceptions and Display my own User Defined Error Messages

I am working with LeadTools 15.0 SDK. For Example i want to catch PaperJam Exception and diplay ny own message like:

try

{

   _twainsession.Acquire(TwainUserInterfaceFlags.None);

}

catch(TwainException ex)

{

     If (ex.code= =TwainExceptionCode.PaperJam) Message.show("Paper Jam");

}

But the _twainsession.Acquire method displays its own message as shown in the attachment. The control doesm't pass to the next code line till I click Cancel. After Clicking the canecl button it displayes one more Error Message "DS or DSM reported error, app shouldn't (no need for your app to report error). Why is this so, please help me in resolving this issue.

Regards

Sridhar

Unfortunately, you cannot catch this error because it is being reported and displayed by the TWAIN driver.  TWAIN works like a black box.  With LEADTOOLS you can get and set capabilities and properties before you scan, but once you call Acquire to scan, all control is given to the scanner and unfortunately this is one thing you can't control.

Sridhar,

In addition to what my colleague Greg said, this message box is popped
by the Twain driver itself, not by LEADTOOLS. I have seen a similar error message in user's guide of a Fujitsu scanner.
There is no function in the Twain standard to turn off error messages related to the device if they are produced by the Twain driver itself.
Try to contact the vendors of your scanner to see if they have a way of suppressing error messages.
