It is always possible for your request to return an error. If an error occurs, e.g. if your API username/password is incorrect, our wrapper will throw a C# exception. If you're not familiar with handling exceptions in C#, it basically means you need to put the wrapper function calls in a try-catch block as shown in the example:
Code Block | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||
try { Hashtable result; result = tmClient.sendSMS("My message", "447000000000", "Sender", 72, "", "", null); } catch(RestClientException e) { Hashtable errors = tmClient.getLastErrors(); } |
You must decide how to handle errors according to the logic of your particular application.
For example, if you're building a web interface to send text messages, and a send fails, you may wish to show a visual alert to the user.
Note that more than one error can be reported at once. Therefore although a single C# exception (the first of the errors) is thrown, the complete set of errors encountered is available in a Hashtable of key-value pairs. The key of each pair is the error code and the value is a detailed description of the error.

foreach (DictionaryEntry de in tmClient.getLastErrors()) Console.WriteLine("Error {0}: {1}", de.Key, de.Value); |
