Cancel image acquisition from SANE scanner

In This Topic

You should call the SaneLocalDevice.CancelImageTransfer method if you want to cancel the image acquisition from SANE scanner.

Here is an example that demonstrates how to cancel the current synchronous image transfer from SANE scanner:

/// <summary>
/// Acquires one image from SANE device and cancels image transfer.
/// </summary>
public static void AcquireOneImageFromSaneDeviceAndCancelScan()
{
    // create SANE device manager
    using (Vintasoft.Sane.SaneLocalDeviceManager deviceManager = new Vintasoft.Sane.SaneLocalDeviceManager())
    {
        // open SANE device manager
        deviceManager.Open();

        // get count of SANE devices
        int deviceCount = deviceManager.Devices.Count;
        if (deviceCount == 0)
        {
            System.Console.WriteLine("Devices are not found.");
            return;
        }

        // select the first SANE device
        Vintasoft.Sane.SaneLocalDevice device = deviceManager.Devices[0];

        // open SANE device
        device.Open();

        Vintasoft.Sane.SaneAcquiredImage acquiredImage;
        do
        {
            try
            {
                // acquire image from SANE device
                acquiredImage = device.AcquireImageSync();
                // if image is received
                if (acquiredImage != null)
                {
                    System.Console.WriteLine("Image is acquired.");

                    // cancel image transfer
                    device.CancelImageTransfer();
                }
                // if image is not received
                else
                {
                    System.Console.WriteLine("Scan is completed.");
                    break;
                }
            }
            catch (System.Exception ex)
            {
                System.Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Scan is failed: {0}", ex.Message));
                break;
            }
        }
        // while device has more images to scan
        while (device.HasMoreImagesToScan);

        // close SANE device
        device.Close();

        // close SANE device manager
        deviceManager.Close();
    }

    System.Console.ReadLine();
}
