This method is implemented on the client-side. It is called by ABBYY FineReader Engine for the InjectTextLayer method of the Engine object. It delivers to the client information about approximate percentage of the operation completed. Its implementation may show a progress indicator, as it is done in ABBYY FineReader. It can also process any system messages to help prevent the application from appearing unresponsive during long operations.

​
Syntax

​
C++

HRESULT OnProgress(
  int           Percentage,
  VARIANT_BOOL* Cancel
);

​
C#

void OnProgress(
  int      Percentage,
  ref bool Cancel
);

​
Visual Basic .NET

Sub OnProgress( _
  Percentage As Integer, _
  ByRef Cancel As Boolean _
)

​
Parameters

Percentage [in] This parameter contains the percent of the work currently done. It is in the range from 0 to 100. Cancel [in, out] You may set this variable to TRUE to indicate that the process should be terminated. In this case, the processing function that reports the percentage returns E_ABORT.

​
Return values

[C++ only] If this method returns a value other than S_OK, it indicates that an error occurred on the client-side, and in this case the value of the Cancel parameter is not taken into account.

​
Remarks

The client implementation of this method must assure that all exceptions thrown inside the method are caught and handled and no exceptions are propagated outside the method. Propagation of an exception outside the method may lead to unpredictable results (such as program termination).
