RfReaderApiException

Whenever RFID reader API related exceptions occur either internally or by calling the
underlying reader service or the physical RFID reader device, these exceptions are wrapped
within an instance of the RfReaderApiException class.
However, this does not prevent general exceptions such as 'out of memory' or 'out of range'
to occur either. So, be prepared to catch those kind of exceptions as well.
This class provides additional information about the source or cause of an exception via the
following members:
● ResultCode : int
● Error : string
● Cause : string
● Description : string
42
The ResultCode specifies the source location of an exception.
ResultCode_System specifies error conditions which occurred internally.
ResultCode_Reader specifies error conditions arising from within an underlying reader
service.
Error is a short description of the error that occurred.
Cause gives additional information if the cause of an error is known.
Additional extra description of the error. May be left blank if not applicable.
