Blocking property


Determines if methods are blocking.

Type

A Boolean value

Syntax

  • Basic
object.Blocking [= value]
The Blocking(object,value) syntax has these parts:
objectAn expression evaluating to an object of type wodAppUpdate.
valueA Boolean value.

Remarks

If this property is set to True, none of the methods will return to your code until the command completes. In other words, the command will be handled synchronously.

If this property is False, all commands are handled asynchronously. They return to you immediately and you are notified of completion with the CheckDone and DownloadDone events. When the user-interface requires that the user is able to continue working while the control does its work, it is recommended that Blocking is set to False so that your program can respond quickly to user actions.
