How to Handle Configuration Manager Asynchronous Errors by Using Managed Code

To handle a Configuration Manager error that is raised during an asynchronous query, you test the RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs parameter Error Exception property that is passed to the SmsBackgroundWorker.QueryProcessorCompleted event handler. If Error is not null, an exception has occurred and you use Error to discover the cause.

If Error is an SmsQueryException, you can use it to get to the underlying __ExtendedException or SMS_ExtendedException. Because the managed SMS Provider library does not wrap these exceptions you will need to use the System.Management namespace ManagementException object to access them.

To handle an asynchronous query error

1. Create an asynchronous query.

2. In the asynchronous query SmsBackgroundWorker.QueryProcessorCompleted event handler, implement the code in the following example.

3. Run the asynchronous query. To test the exception handler, pass a badly formed query string such as Select & from &&& to the QueryProcessorBase.ProcessQuery method.

Example

The following example implements a SmsBackgroundWorker.QueryProcessorCompleted event handler.

For information about calling the sample code, see Calling Configuration Manager Code Snippets.

void bw1_QueryProcessorCompleted(object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e)  
{  
    if (e.Error != null)  
    {  
        Console.WriteLine("There was an Error");  
        if (e.Error is SmsQueryException)  
        {  
            SmsQueryException queryException = (SmsQueryException)e.Error;  
            Console.WriteLine(queryException.Message);  

            // Get either the __ExtendedStatus or SMS_ExtendedStatus object and display various properties.  
            ManagementException mgmtExcept = queryException.InnerException as ManagementException;  

            if (mgmtExcept != null)  
            {  
                if (string.Equals(mgmtExcept.ErrorInformation.ClassPath.ToString(), "SMS_ExtendedStatus", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) == true)  
                {  
                    Console.WriteLine("Configuration Manager provider exception");  
                }  

                else if (string.Equals(mgmtExcept.ErrorInformation.ClassPath.ToString(), "__ExtendedStatus", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) == true)  
                {  
                    Console.WriteLine("WMI exception");  
                }  
                Console.WriteLine(mgmtExcept.ErrorCode.ToString());  
                Console.WriteLine(mgmtExcept.ErrorInformation["ParameterInfo"].ToString());  
                Console.WriteLine(mgmtExcept.ErrorInformation["Operation"].ToString());  
                Console.WriteLine(mgmtExcept.ErrorInformation["ProviderName"].ToString());  
            }  

        }  
        if (e.Error is SmsConnectionException)  
        {  
            Console.WriteLine("There was a connection error :" + ((SmsConnectionException)e.Error).Message);  
            Console.WriteLine(((SmsConnectionException)e.Error).ErrorCode);  
        }  
    }  

    Console.WriteLine("Done...");  
}  

The example method has the following parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
sender	- Object	The source of the event.
e	- RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs	The event data. For more information, see RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs Class.
