Syntax
C#
public bool WaitForListDone(
	out int? listID,
	int? timeout = null
)

Parameters

listID  NullableInt32
Receives the Card-CommandList Identifier of the first list which was executed to completion since the last time this function was called.
timeout  NullableInt32  (Optional)
null
(or omitted)
use the default timeout period specified by ClientAPITimeout
  -1wait indefinitely for the event
   0do not wait, simply check if an event has already been reported
 > 0timeout period in ms

Remarks
  • Note that this function will throw a TimeoutException if no event is reported within the specified timeout period.

    Use TryWaitForListDone(NullableInt32, NullableInt32) if no exception is desired.

  • Waiting can be interrupted by calling InterruptWaitForListDone.

    Doing so will cause a ThreadInterruptedException.

  • Like all methods which involve communication with the card, this method is not thread-safe.
  • An executionDone event occurs when execution of a list has completely finished (all micro-vectors have been output), and only if execution was triggered explicitly by calling ListAPIExecute(Int32).
  • Sublists do not trigger executionDone events.
