SpeechRecognitionEngine::UnloadGrammar Method (Grammar^)

.NET Framework (current version)
 

Unloads a specified Grammar object from the SpeechRecognitionEngine instance.

Namespace:   System.Speech.Recognition
Assembly:  System.Speech (in System.Speech.dll)

C#
C++
F#
VB
Copy 
public:
void UnloadGrammar(
	Grammar^ grammar
)

Parameters

grammar
Type: System.Speech.Recognition::Grammar^

The grammar object to unload.

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

Grammar is null.

InvalidOperationException

The grammar is not loaded in this recognizer, or this recognizer is currently loading the grammar asynchronously.

If the recognizer is running, applications must use RequestRecognizerUpdate to pause the SpeechRecognitionEngine instance before loading, unloading, enabling, or disabling a Grammar object. To unload all Grammar objects, use the UnloadAllGrammars method.

The following example shows part of a console application that demonstrates the synchronous loading and unloading of speech recognition grammars.

Copy 
Loading grammars...
Loaded grammars:
 - Grammar1
 - Grammar2
 - Grammar3

Unloading Grammar1...
Loaded grammars:
 - Grammar2
 - Grammar3

Unloading all grammars...
No grammars loaded.
