BrokerLost class

The BrokerLost exception class indicates that the connection with the Imagine Transparency broker for the session was lost, either because of a network issue or an error in the Imagine application. The Call function of the Imagine system class is currently the only method that might throw a BrokerLost exception. For more information about catching a thrown exception, see Try and Catch. A lost broker connection for Imagine Transparency file operations results in a request cancellation as there's typically no method to throw the exception and, even if an exception were thrown in such a case, the error is so low-level and severe that any attempt to recover from it would be a bad idea.
