Is there a Kill or other such event if a GUI app crashes or killed? Or
should that just be handled with %SIG it would be awfully convenient if you
could do something like:
I tried a few things awhile back and the only %SIG I could get to work was
this:
sub trapEnd {
print "\nPress Ctrl-C again to terminate program\n";
logInfo("** Killed once **");
}
$SIG{INT} = "trapEnd";
But that only works if you press Ctrl-C in the DOS window (it wasn't a
Win32::GUI application, Ctrl-C doesn't work in a window anyway).
But if the app is killed from the Task Manager, or if the user closes the
DOS window with the [X] button the program never gets to know what hit it
before it's too late.
AFAIK, your only chance is to eval {} the main loop to catch runtime errors
and deaths. That's basically it.
