The only way to forcibly end it is to run it in another thread and use Thread.Abort[1]. All of the usual caveats around Thread.Abort apply, and your atexit may or may not be called.
The Shutdown method is a bit misleading; it does some cleanup but doesn't actually *stop* the current engine. There really isn't any way to do that, and any implementation would probably be the moral equivalent of Thread.Abort anyway. - Jeff [1] http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ty8d3wta.aspx On Wed, Mar 26, 2014 at 11:10 AM, Andrew Stephens < andrew.steph...@nu-ins.com> wrote: > Let's say I run the following simple script (which also contains an > "atexit" func, as I might want to perform some cleanup when the script > terminates):- > > > > import atexit > > import time > > import sys > > > > @atexit.register > > def cleanup(): > > print 'doing cleanup/termination code' > > sys.exit() > > > > for i in range(100): > > print 'doing something' > > time.sleep(1) > > > > If I call "_engine.Runtime.Shutdown()" in my C# code, it results in the > atexit func getting called and raising a SysExitException in the calling C# > code (due to the line "sys.exit()"), but the "for" loop still continues to > run to completion. > > What am I missing?
