Hi,
I have done a dll that go into a while loop.
It freeze gvim interface and I wonder if I can recode this loop in
order to stop it by signal sent or another way ?
Thanks for help
Hm, here are a few ideas:
1. Have you tried <Esc> or <Ctrl-Break>? Does it do anything? If neither
does, maybe you could test for an Esc and/or a Ctrl-Break in the loop in
order to terminate it early.
2. Maybe you could send Vim a signal that it doesn't use, and intercept
it in the DLL? Not sure which signal though; under Linux I would have
suggested SIGUSR2. This requires adding a signal handler to the DLL,
chaining with any signal handler already installed in the caller.
3. Maybe you could send Vim a signal that it does intercept, but if (1)
above doesn't work, it might terminate Vim (under Linux I would have
suggested SIGHUP, or if that doesn't work, SIGTERM).
4. If worst comes to worst, you may have to kill Vim (under Linux:
SIGKILL; under Windows: open the Task Manager, probably by Ctrl-Alt-Del,
then select Vim and terminate it).
Best regards,
Tony.
