# ScriptStop Method - neoVI API

This method stops the execution of a script that is running on a neoVI device.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="C/C++ Declare" %}

```cpp
int _stdcall icsneoScriptStop(void * hObject);
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Visual Basic .NET Declare" %}

```vbnet
Public Declare Function icsneoScriptStop Lib “icsneo40.dll” (ByVal hObject As IntPtr) As Int32
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="C# Declare" %}

```csharp
[DllImport(“icsneo40.dll”)] public static extern Int32 icsneoScriptStop(IntPtr hObject);
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

**Parameters**

hObject

\[in] Specifies the driver object created by [OpenNeoDevice](/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/basic-functions-overview-intrepidcs-api/openneodevice-method-intrepidcs-api.md).

**Return Values**

1 if the function succeeded. 0 if it failed for any reason. [GetLastAPIError](/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/error-functions-overview-intrepidcs-api/getlastapierror-method-intrepidcs-api.md) must be called to obtain the specific error.

**Remarks**

If a script is executing on the neoVI calling this method will stop it. The script will still be present on the device and can be started again by [ScriptStart](/neovi-api/win32-api-overview-intrepidcs-api/deprecated-functions-overview-intrepidcs-api/coremini-script-interface-overview-intrepidcs-api/scriptstart-method-intrepidcs-api.md) The errors that can be generated by this function are:

NEOVI\_ERROR\_DLL\_NEOVI\_NO\_RESPONSE = 75

NEOVI\_ERROR\_DLL\_SCRIPT\_NO\_SCRIPT\_RUNNING = 226

### Examples

{% tab title="C/C++ Example:" %}

```cpp
int iRetVal;
unsigned long lLastErrNum;

iRetVal = icsneoScriptStop(m_hObject);
if(iRetVal == 0)
{
    printf("Failed to Stop the script API Error\n");
}
else
{
    printf("Successfully stopped the script\n");
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="C# Example:" %}

```csharp
Int32 iResult;

//Stop CoreMini
iResult = icsNeoDll.icsneoScriptStop(m_hObject);

if(iResult == 0)
{
    lblCMStatus.Text = "CoreMini Failed to Stop";
}
else
{
    lblCMStatus.Text = "CoreMini Stopped";
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Visual Basic .NET Example:" %}

```vbnet
Dim iResult As Int32

'//Stop CoreMini
iResult = icsneoScriptStop(m_hObject)

If iResult = 0 Then
    lblCMStatus.Text = "CoreMini Failed to Stop"
Else
    lblCMStatus.Text = "CoreMini Stopped"
End If
```
