Closing windowless unigui application

[Rav]

Hello,

I have a windowless application with integrated UniGui and I need it to close from one of its threads.
Without UniGUI I didn't use Application.run, didn't handle messages and instead of it I used a special thread which checked globally defined variable ApplicationTerminated that could be set out of everywhere.

 

Now with UniGUI I need to stop Application.run from another thread. All the ways mentioned from this topic are not working:

Application.Terminate (no result);
UniApplication.Terminate (access violation);
MainModule.UniMainModule.Terminate (access violation)

 

Is there another way of proper closing the application?

Hi;

 

An UniGUI application can be closed from only its events like onclick, not other threads events. That's the reason why you are getting access violation error.

Thanks!

Is there a workaround? UniThreadTimer? Server Module thread?

try this

 

UniApplication.Terminate('GoodBye');  // to put the app in a closed state in the browser

PostThreadMessage(MainThreadID,wm_quit,0,0);  // will tell the main application to terminate 

 

Use only for testing though... or users will be able to terminate the server.exe
