ATGUISHUTDOWN issue

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   The following code will only shutdown the GUI if the sleep command is included. The application is being called from a variety of processes and in turn calls a VB application, via ESC:STX:"<":CMD:CR: .

The form would correctly be removed, but the GUI server continued to run. I placed a debug before the form close trying to catch an errors, but instead, the GUI server would shutdown. If the sleep is removed, closing down the server does not take place. Any ideas?

          SLEEP 20

          GOSUB  GUI.WARN.FORM1.CLOSE

          CALL ATGUISHUTDOWN

	Hi Walt - The server process (atguisvr.exe or atguisvr70.exe) does not shut down until the session is closed or reset. This is by design - once a GUI app has been run, its likely one will be run in the future so the cost of starting the server process is avoided after the first GUI app. Thanks, Pete
