External app is trying to close my script

When External app is trying to close my script is there any way i could have my script to know about it ?

For example using another script to close compiled running loop, is there anyway for that compiled running loop to identify that something is trying to close it and run some sort of function ?

Maybe something like

onAutoitClose

or maybe i need some kind of case for my loop ?

while1

Case $On_Autoit_Close

somefunc()

wend

Func somefunc()

msgbox(0,'','something is closing this app')

;do something Then

Exit

endfunc

BTW there is no GUI or anything like that, just this simple loop with checking if process exist or not.

I think i saw this somewhere but i just cant find it anymore.

Am i looking for impossible ? :mellow:

Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you want OnAutoItExitRegister()

Registers a function to be called when AutoIt exits ?

I think i need to execute function but maybe i dont understand the word register ?

Ok its registered, then what ? Does it register function that will be executed once script is exited ? :mellow:

Thanks

I found

Opt("OnExitFunc", "endscript") somehow its not working with current AUTOIT release.

Saying

ERROR: Opt() called with illegal argument 1: "OnExitFunc"

Opt("OnExitFunc", "endscript")

And for some reaons for Opt help file shows

AutoItSetOption ( "option" [, param] )

Also i cant open any script from help file after installing new version.

With new version somethings just dont work, for example code prediction as you type would sometimes go away for no reason at the beginning of typing command ("

Strange

Taken from the help file (Your best source for help) "Registers a function to be called when AutoIt exits.". So yes, when it exists the function will be called.

Also out of curiosity, what is trying to close you script? An Anti Virus?

FireDaemon. I just want to make sure critical exit code executed before it shut down.

I also noticed that ending process in task manager voids this function, so how do other applications exiting my script ? Do they close it gently or something ?

I wonder if autoit can close other applications gently, not just by processclose command.

Thanks for reply
