SIMCONNECT_RECV_EXCEPTION
The SIMCONNECT_RECV_EXCEPTION structure is used with the SIMCONNECT_EXCEPTION enumeration type to return information on an error that has occurred.
Syntax
struct SIMCONNECT_RECV_EXCEPTION : public SIMCONNECT_RECV {
DWORD dwException;
DWORD dwSendID;
DWORD dwIndex;
};Members
| Member | Description |
|---|---|
dwException | One member of the SIMCONNECT_EXCEPTION enumeration type, indicating which error has occurred. |
dwSendID | The ID of the packet that contained the error, see Remarks below.Special case: SIMCONNECT_RECV_EXCEPTION::UNKNOWN_SENDID.Note that if this special case is returned, there has been an internal problem. |
dwIndex | The index number (starting at 1) of the first parameter that caused an error.Special case: SIMCONNECT_RECV_EXCEPTION::UNKNOWN_INDEX. |
Remarks
This structure inherits the SIMCONNECT_RECV structure and is returned when the dwID parameter of SIMCONNECT_RECV is set to SIMCONNECT_RECV_ID_EXCEPTION. In order to match the dwSendID parameter returned here, with the ID of a request, use the SimConnect_GetLastSentPacketID call after each request is made.
Note that the HRESULT errors returned after each API call do not involve any communication with the SimConnect server, but are simply client-side errors that are returned immediately. Test for exceptions to check for server-side errors.
