Running VFP 9, SP1 under XP Pro. Simple application based on a single,
top-level form.
Can't get ON SHUTDOWN to fire at runtime.
1. I can verify that ON SHUTDOWN is set via a button that shows me its
value:
wait window 'on shutdown = ' + on( 'shutdown' )
2. My ON SHUTDOWN code is simple (to verify ON SHUTDOWN event is
firing):
on shutdown messagebox( 'On shutdown triggered' )
3. I am trying to trigger ON SHUTDOWN via the following:
a. By right-clicking on Taskbar icon and choosing Close (causes my
top-level form's QueryUnload event to fire)
b. By clicking on End Task button in Windows Task Manager (gives me
'Application is not responding' message)
Wondering out-loud ...
1. Am I doing something wrong?
2. Have I misunderstood what actions fire the ON SHUTDOWN 'event'?
3. Have I misunderstood what the ON SHUTDOWN command does?
Your thoughts appreciated!
