Classes
  ClassDescription
Public classAcquireEventArgs
Contains information about the image just acquired.
Public classCode exampleAcquisition
This is the main class for image acquisitions. Use this class by itself for standard acquires, or use it to get a Device object for more control over the acquire operation. For low level access to Twain, use the TwainController object.
Public classCode exampleAsynchronousExceptionEventArgs
This class is passed to an AsynchronousExceptionEventHandler when there is an exception during an asynchronous acquisition.
Public classCode exampleDevice

Contains information about a single device and handles the acquisition of images from that device.

Public classDeviceCollection

Contains a collection of all Device objects on the system.

Public classDeviceEventArgs
Contains information about a device event.
Public classDocumentFeeder
Gives control over the document feeder used by a scanner.
Public classFileInformation
Contains information about a specific file in the FileSystem.
Public classFileSystem
Contains methods which can navigate the file system of a camera.
Public classFileTransferEventArgs

Contains information about the file transfer used in the FileTransfer event.

Public classFormDataCollection
The FormDataCollection is used with the HttpPost class to send form information to a web server.
Public classCode exampleHttpPost

This class allows can post image data to a server without user interaction.

Public classInvalidStateException
This exception is fired when an action, such as setting a property, has been taken before the device is in the proper state.
Public classMemoryDataTransferEventArgs
This class is used with the MemoryDataTransfer event of the TwainController.
Public classMemoryFileTransferEventArgs
This class contains information for a memory file transfer.
Public classTwainBarCode
This class provides access to barcode and patchcode specific methods.
Public classCode exampleTwainCapability
This class is used with SendCommand() to get or set device capabilities.
Public classTwainController
The TwainController class allows for lower level access to Twain, providing greater control over the acquisition and access to custom device properties.
Public classTwainCustomData
This class is used with SendCommand() to query the device for its current settings or to restore previously saved settings.
Public classTwainDataImageInfoEventArgs
This class is passed to the BeforeTwainDataTransfer event to supply general information about the image about to be acquired.
Public classTwainDataTransferEventArgs
This class is used with the TwainDataTransfer event to allow the acquired data to be handled by the developer instead of by DotTwain.
Public classTwainDeviceCallbackEventArgs
This class is used with the TwainDeviceCallbackEventHandler and provides information passed from the device to the application.
Public classCode exampleTwainDeviceEvent
This class is used with SendCommand() to obtain information about a device event when the TwainEventMessage retrieved from ProcessEvent(Message, TwainEventMessage) is MSG_DEVICEEVENT.
Public classTwainEvent
This class is used with SendCommand() to process Windows messages during an acquisition.
Public classTwainException
This is a general exception due to an error while using DotTwain.
Public classTwainExtendedImageInformation
This class is used with SendCommand() to get extended image information from the device.
Public classTwainFileSystem
This class is used with SendCommand to control the file system of a Twain compatible camera.
Public classTwainHandle
This class is used with SendCommand() to pass a handle to Twain.
Public classTwainIdentity
This class is used to identify your application to Twain and to provide information about each Twain compatible device found on the system.
Public classTwainImageInfo
This class is used with SendCommand() to get information about the image about to be scanned or the one that was just acquired.
Public classTwainImageLayout
This class is used with the SendCommand() method to get or set image layout data.
Public classTwainManager

The TwainManager class is used to control which version of TWAIN is used by DotTwain.

TWAIN 2.x (twaindsm.dll) will be used by default if it exists on the system, otherwise TWAIN version 1.x (twain_32.dll) is used. Some drivers will not work with TWAIN 2.x, such as WIA drivers. To use these drivers you can force DotTwain to use version 1.x by setting the ForceTwain1xBehavior property to true before creating an instance of Acquisition or TwainController.

Public classCode exampleTwainMemory
This class represents a memory object passed into TWAIN or returned from TWAIN.
Public classCode exampleTwainResolution
Describes the horizontal and vertical resolution.
Public classTwainUserInterface
This class is used with the SendCommand() method to display or hide the driver interface.
Public classUnsupportedCapabilityException

This exception is caused when trying to use features of Twain which are unsupported by the device. For instance, if you try to perform an acquire directly to file and the device does not support this feature, an UnsupportedCapabilityException will be generated.

Interfaces
  InterfaceDescription
Public interfaceCode exampleITwainDataStructure
This interface is used for data classes sent to the SendCommand(TwainTriplet, TwainIdentity, ITwainDataStructure) method.
Delegates
  DelegateDescription
Public delegateAsynchronousExceptionEventHandler
This event handler is used to notify the application of any exceptions during an asynchronous acquisition.
Public delegateBeforeTwainDataTransferEventHandler
This event handler is used to provide information about the data that is about to be scanned.
Public delegateDeviceEventHandler
This event handler is used to pass the DeviceEventFlagss to the application.
Public delegateFileTransferEventHandler
This event handler is used when acquiring images directly to a file.
Public delegateImageAcquiredEventHandler
This event handler is used to notify the application when an image has been acquired.
Public delegateMemoryDataTransferEventHandler
This event handler is used in the TwainController to capture a memory transfer as data is being sent from the driver.
Public delegateMemoryFileTransferEventHandler
This event handler is used in the TwainController and Acquisition objects to request a file format and Stream for saving the scanned image.
Public delegateTwainDataTransferEventHandler
This event handler is used to allow the data retrieved from the device to be handled by the developer instead of by DotTwain.
Public delegateTwainDeviceCallbackEventHandler

This delegate is used with the RegisterTwainCallback(TwainDeviceCallbackEventHandler) method to allow the use of a callback instead of a message loop for device communication.

This feature is only available when using TWAIN 2.0 or higher.
